We never spoke, but somehow we knew
this silence stretched but never passed through
Breathing in time, pausing in sync
stranded Worlds poisoned to meet

Waiting for me or maybe for you,
some version of love that I never knew.
Please keep me here, just for a while
I’m drifting again, barely alive

Where we were then,
in this half-lit home?
And why should I stay
if you’re already gone?

What’s left in my hands,
it’s this shape that we made
they’re closing around
the nothing we gave
