The Pause That Haunts

The silence shifts when names return,
With memories that gently burn.
A thousand thoughts in quiet stream,
Unspoken words within the dream.
No visible change to those around,
Yet something deep no longer sound.
It does not break, it does not sting,
But leaves behind a pulsing ring.
The pain is gone, the peace intact,
Yet past and present still contract.
No voice dares speak, no tears descend,
Just echoes time refuses to end.
What once brought fire now brings the breeze,
Yet never fully grants release.
A name once gold, now dulled by rust,
Still carried softly in the dust.
