Decoding The Unspoken

moorpark, ca

“in the quiet moments, i learned to see
the subtle shifts, like ripples on a sea
eyes that dart, a hesitant smile
words unspoken, lingering a while

betrayed and hurt, my heart in chains
yet love persists through all the pains
i watch for signs, both big and small
the truth in gestures, standing tall

though wronged in ways that cut so deep
my soul still yearns, secrets to keep
i've learned to read the silent cues
the whispered truths in morning dews

forgiveness blooms in tender light
as i decipher day and night
the small things speak volumes untold
in this new language, i grow bold”
