“presence”
missing lines
breathe
between us,
their silence
teaching us
listen harder,
believe
that absence
is also presence.

I really enjoyed this write. It's the same with music and songs really...I like to hear the deliberate empty bars without any lyrics, the space between spaces if you wish.
An enjoyable read.

Yes! In Music class I loved the rest symbols. Thanks Syd 🙏🏻🕊️
the natural pause between the melody of words
Yes, most definitely dear friend 🙏🏻🕊️
most welcome much enjoyed
Indeed my friend what is not said is often more important that what is said. It is in the pauses that the true story is told. Nicely done Cryptic
A well placed pose is definitely more than what can be usually read as hesitation. Thanks dear friend 🙏🏻🕊️
Always a pleasure my friend
Wow, Arqios...this is minimal, thoughtful, and quietly haunting. The silence, the spacing, and the sense of absence all work together beautifully. Really lovely piece, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
And hopefully not minimalist in response to your excellent comment. Therein, absence has its own presence. Thanks, Tittu. 🙏🕊️
Quite true. A Pause can say so much.
Indeed. Thanks, Kevin🙏🏻🕊️
