you didn't say it, but i knew

You held my hand but looked away
We shared the sun, but not the day
You smiled like everything was fine
But silence slipped between the lines
No fight, no tears, just colder air
And all the words you didn’t dare
You didn’t say it, but I knew
Love doesn’t end, it just walks through
You stayed, but you were far from here
A body close, a soul not near
And though your lips said nothing new
You didn’t say it
But I knew
You laughed at something on your screen
I laughed too hard to fill the scene
We touched like strangers passing by
Still calling love, but asking why
No final line, no closing door
Just empty chairs and something more
You didn’t say it, but I knew
Love doesn’t end, it just walks through
You stayed, but you were far from here
A body close, a soul not near
And though your lips said nothing new
You didn’t say it
But I knew
And maybe leaving feels like this—
The quiet kind
No final kiss
