Quiet days
And quiet nights
Loneliness
And lingering thoughts
Missing you
Without tears
Missing you
Without saying a word
Missing you
While no one notices
Missing you
In the pause before I sleep
Missing you
In the silence
And in the space
Where your laughter once used to echo
Missing you
In stillness
Not in words
But in weight
That my heart carries
Of your memories
Missing you
Each day
Every breath
But
Quietly.
