#WritcoPoemPrompt79
The more you want a reply from a person, the more they'll keep silent,
A dance of unspoken words, a tension so vibrant.
Like shadows that flicker in the dimmest of light,
Each moment stretches, a test of the night.

You send out your thoughts like a message in flight,
Hoping for warmth in the chill of their quiet.
Yet silence grows louder, an echoing wall,
A reminder that longing can sometimes enthrall.

With every tick-tock, your heart beats in time,
Anticipation...
