'I love you,
Please,
Don't leave me.
Please,
Stay,' she begged,
'Just stay.'
Silence followed,
Maybe it had listened,
Because wherever they were,
It stayed.
And it stayed that way,
Until she started to love it back,
Until she accepted,
That the silence,
Was a thousand unspoken words,
And maybe,
She didn't need to hear them.
Maybe,
She needed the silence,
Maybe,
It had to stay,
Because he didn't.
