When Silence stretches

I do not hear your voice each day, No words to chase the dark away. But still, you live inside my mind, A love that time cannot unwind. The quiet hours feel so long, Yet in my heart, you still belong. A thousand miles, a thousand dreams, You’re closer than the silence seems. The world keeps turning, loud and fast, But I hold on, our love will last. No call, no message, yet I know, Through every space, our feelings grow. For love is patient, love is strong, It sings when everything feels wrong. So though we’re silent, far apart, You live within my beating heart.
