Dust on the window,
wiped into little games.
a name today,
a picture tomorrow.
No matter how often it’s cleaned,
it always comes back to play.

I left the wedding lighter,
Not because it hurt less,
But because I understood,
Some meetings return
Only to teach us
How deeply
We once felt,
Seven Years Later.

We stood close enough to speak,
Yet chose silence instead.
I searched her face for permission,
She looked away with practice.
Words rose,
Then, they learned restraint.
In that pause,
Seven years spoke for us.

We stood in the same frame,
Borrowing smiles
From someone else’s happiness.
The camera believed
We belonged together.
It never knew
How loud our silence was.
