Stillness.
We sat together in silence
It had been a while
We didn't have to say anything
The cold lingered outside
A quiet chill in the air
But none of it mattered.
Because we were both lost in space
Lost in the moment
Except for the distant sound of cars
It was all quiet
Completely still and quiet
And in that stillness
I didn't have to think
Didn't have to figure my next step
Not about the dishes
Not even the pending tasks
It was just us
and the silence within.
