Your pain is palatable
Felt from afar so strong
Physical ache
Heaviness of chest
A silent witness

Wanting to reach out
Swallowing my words
It’s all left unsaid
A shadow stalker

Soul mates we are
That is a truth
No one and nothing
Will change that
It will always be

A silent witness
Words unspoken
Emotion felt
From miles apart
Volume is loud
