The Light That Hovers Over Silence

The silence in this hour is so heavy it feels like a sound. You reach for the phone, certain it buzzed, certain the reply finally arrived.

But the screen stays dark. It is just the ghost of a hope you are too afraid to send.

In this deepest dark, the light does not demand your words. It simply sits with you in the quiet.

There is a courage in the unsent message, in the trembling thumb that hovers over the glass. You are not abandoned because the notification never comes.

The light is already here, holding the space where your fear lives. It knows the words you cannot type.

It hears the sentence you never finish. You do not need to send it to be known.

The silence is not empty. It is full of a presence that needs no signal to reach you.
