Silence…….

I sat there, staring at her. We had so much to talk about but we didn’t speak. No words exchanged. Silence kept stretching the time, a little more with each breath that we took. Her eyes were starting to fill with water. I had a lump in my throat. Her eyelids had a world of his own which she created in my absence. She wanted to survive and this was the best way. She wanted to let go of that world because she finally had me in front of her. I never wanted her to cry. Even if they were her tears of joy. Those drops were precious to me. More than any pearls or diamonds. But she had to. Some tears rain the best.
