Taurus

The silence between you and someone else is not the absence of conversation but the presence of everything that has already been said. You know this because you can feel the weight of it, the way it sits in the room when you are both there, the way it follows you when you are not. This is not the hollow quiet of strangers but the full quiet of people who have arrived at the same understanding from different directions. The silence holds what words would only diminish, and you are learning to let it do its work without rushing to fill it with explanations that would make it smaller.
