The Love Is Sweeping The Room

The house is quiet now, and you are holding pages that used to burn with a love you can no longer feel. You scan the old words, searching for the exact sentence where your heart went numb, as if the frost began at a specific comma.

But the numbness is not a wound you inflicted; it is a shield that grew when the light felt too bright to bear. There was a woman who lost a single coin in the dust of her home, and she did not wait for it to return.

She lit a lamp. She swept the floor.

She searched carefully until the light found what was hidden. You are that coin.

You have not rolled away from the love; the love is sweeping the room right now, looking for you beneath the dust of your silence. The moment your heart stopped feeling is not the end of the story; it is simply the place where the search begins.
