neither here nor there

open a door long closed or stand outside with the key in hand

hold the weight of what was broken or let it sink into the earth

mend what time unraveled or let time be the only voice between

see the same face with new eyes or let that face fade into a stranger


do you speak or let the quiet be the weight of all you never said

a glance could undo all the distance or leave it there, stretching wide

do you dare build a bridge or let the gap become everything you are

you could try again or let the silence turn to stone, crushing what remains

meet again where things fell apart or walk away, carrying the pieces alone

speak the truths that were buried or let them dissolve into nothingness

reach across the space once filled with words or let silence stretch into forever

breathe life into what has withered or watch the ground crack beneath the silence


walk the same road with different footsteps or turn back before it bends

offer what remains of a fractured heart or keep the shards hidden

take a step into the unknown or stand frozen in what is already lost

risk healing through the cracks or build walls that never crumble


you could speak or let the empty space between you expand

one word could change it all or you stay locked in the quiet

there is a moment when paths cross or stretch far beyond sight

a hand reaching or pulling away in the weight of this stillness


speak and risk the silence breaking or let the words fade with time

a chance to bridge what was lost or a silence full of unspoken words

to step forward or wait until even the smallest step feels too far

come forward or fall back into the quiet where nothing changes


you could speak from your heart or leave silence to do the talking

one word of kindness or nothing, the distance stays the same

a moment could change the future or hold on to regret of the past

you could meet halfway or never move at all.
