The Weight of Salt and Silence

I see the world in gradients of grey, yet you are the only spark that feels like heat.
The ocean is a vast, achromatic expanse today, its waves carving patterns into the shore like ink on parchment. I sit here, draped in linen that catches the wind—a fabric as thin and honest as my own skin.
My body remembers the city's friction: the neon glare, the crowded trains, the relentless hum of ambition. But here, under the silvered sun, there is only the rhythm of my breath and the salt on my lips.
You are not present in the frame, yet I feel your gaze like a physical touch—a steady pressure against my shoulder. It is a modern romance of glances and unspoken promises. We don't need words to heal; we only need this moment where time stretches thin, where the warmth of the light sinks into my bones, and I finally allow myself to be still.
