Unsaid

Amandatoriii

 

You touch my hand like you’re testing the moment,

unsure how long it’s meant to last,

like holding on too tight

might change what’s already good.

 

Your voice settles into me,

low and careful,

like it knows the ghosts I carry

and chooses not to wake them.

 

I catch myself smiling at nothing,

at the way your presence

feels like a door left open

on a warm night.

 

And those glances

where we both know there’s something to be said

but we act like there isn’t,

they echo louder

than words ever could.

 

You don’t ask for more than I can give,

and still, somehow,

you make me want to give it.

    The desire to give provoked by looks from another nicely expressed in this poem. Well done

  • Thomas W Case
