In the Space Between Our Words
In the space between our words,
Lies the love we’ve always heard.
Unspoken thoughts, unvoiced delight,
Flow like rivers in the night.
You say “I’m fine,” and yet I know,
The thoughts you hide, the fears you show.
I see the tremble in your smile,
And hold your hand a little while.
Our silence sings its own refrain,
A language shaped by joy and pain.
No need to speak, I understand—
Your heart beats loudly in my hand.
The world may need its spoken vows,
But we’ve exchanged our sacred “hows.”
In how we care, in how we see,
In how we set each other free.
No lyric poem or rhyming phrase
Can match the way you hold my gaze.
For in that look, the world is clear—
I know I’m safe, I know you’re near.
So let our silence softly grow,
For in that space, our love will show.
