my mind has not been silent since, you

my mind has not been silent since, you.

-

I can't stop thinking about you.

Like waves that never cease to roll,

In spaces between heartbeats,

You resound in my quiet.

Try to focus, try to work,

But you slip into every scene.

You always pave ways to my escape,

These thoughts of you, they fill my soul.

From the pause before sleep comes,

To the moment my eyes open at dawn.

My mind replays our moments,

Like favorite scenes on repeat—

Your laugh, your voice, your touch.

Random songs become about you,

Places hold memories of togetherness.

Even when I'm miles away,

I'm dreaming of your face.

My friends say I'm distracted,

Lost in thoughts I can't disguise.

How do I explain you've become

The poem behind my eyes?

My mind has not been silent since, You.

A beautiful invasion of my thoughts.

Perhaps peace isn't silence after all,

But the sound of your name in my mind.
