Sigh!

…..i’ve been sighing a lot lately, found out why, then wrote something about it.

By Marvelous MichaelPublished 12 months ago 1 min read

Sometimes, the sadness is not loud,

It doesn’t scream or shout.

It’s the quiet ache in your chest,

The weight of a heart that can’t rest.

…………..

It’s the tears that don’t fall,

But linger just beneath your eyes,

Waiting for a moment to break free,

But it slips away as just a sigh.

…………..

The lingering sigh in you

Is perhaps not the tired,

But the weight of pain,

lingering slowly in the dark,

Dragging you down with every mark of sigh.

    A sigh so soft, yet it speaks volumes—a quiet echo of unseen pain. Your words capture the unspoken ache beautifully, a gentle reminder of the depths we carry within. Poignant and moving, this resonates deeply.
