I noticed your pen ran out of ink mid-sentence,
you changed the color to teal.

I notice the sigh that softly huffs out from between your lips,
You smile anyways.

I notice the fiction within that smile,
It's broken but it will always remain beautiful.

I noticed your gaze casted away from me as you swallowed the lump in your throat,
I am sorry this is so frustrating & perpetual.

I notice your soul within the window of your eyes,
you're searching for something...anything to hold on to as you are being tossed around, about & beneath the surface of the seven seas.
