The Quiet Music,

Five Miniatures on the Things That Stay When People Leave.

By fairy girlPublished 3 months ago 1 min read

🌙 “Night Light”

Some people leave the light on because they’re scared of the dark.

I leave mine on… just in case someone finally comes home.

🍃 – “Almost”

I almost told you.

That I missed you.

That I still check your name.

But almost doesn't change anything, does it?

☁️ “Clouds Know”

I talk to the sky sometimes.

Not because I expect an answer.

But because the clouds feel closer than the people I lost.

🌼 “Still Here”

She’s gone.

But the way she said my name still echoes in the hallway.

Some people leave.

But their voice… it stays.

🔁 “Replays”

Some memories don’t fade.

They just get quieter.

Like music playing in another room.

You can’t stop it… but you don’t really want to.
