Years passed beside the ghat, where mornings wore marigolds, and love sat beside me not in words, but in the way time slowed when you were near.
Nothing was ever said. Still, everything was known. The river moved, the city prayed, and in between it all, your eyes found mine like it was the most natural thing in the world.
this wasn’t some grand love it was just there sitting beside me like it always belonged no need to say anything words would’ve ruined it it lived in silence in glances in the way everything slowed down the river kept moving people kept praying but we just sat and that was enough maybe we were too scared to speak maybe silence felt safer but in that quiet something real existed and that’s all it ever was real even if no one ever said it
