You held the glass like you held me
A little too loose, a little carefree
Words at the edge, but none released
Still, I felt every missing piece
Almost spilled, but stayed contained
Your silence loud, like summer rain
I reached for what you didn’t say
And watched you drift the other way
You blinked too long, I felt the slip
But still you smiled and took one sip
You balance truth like it’s too full
You never drop, but never pull
Every pause is something meant
But wrapped in casual accident
