Lost Connection

Moment of Silence Challenge

So many years sitting across from one another. Husband and wife, once closely knitted.

Invested in the other’s desires, goals, accomplishments and well-being.

Long talks, laughter, tears, and physical touch, year by year creating a bond,

Ever since the two souls joyfully tied themselves together on their wedding day,

Nineteen years earlier. But where has that closeness gone?

Communication has failed, they’ve grown apart without noticing. Now they sit quietly,

Eyeing each other, neither one knowing how to awaken the intimacy of their union.

Acrostic
