The Empty Chair at the Dinner Table
When absence speaks louder than words at a familiar table
By Emma Published 6 months ago • 1 min read

The plate was set, the fork aligned,
But your soft laugh I couldn’t find.
The candles burned with quiet grace,
Yet missed the warmth of your embrace.
The chair stayed still, it didn’t move,
A hollow space that couldn’t soothe.
The food grew cold, the night grew long,
The silence sang its mournful song.
We fill the room with talk and cheer,
But still, I wish that you were here.
An empty chair, yet full of pain,
A ghost of love that will remain.
