Gemini

Some silences hold more than the conversations that came before them. You know the difference between the quiet that means nothing left to say and the quiet that means everything important is finally getting room to breathe. The person sitting across from you in this particular silence is seeing a version of you that doesn't appear in other rooms, and you are doing the same with them. What fills the space between you isn't words but the recognition that this moment couldn't happen with anyone else in quite this way.
