Sovushka & Nevermore
Nevermore
Have you ever noticed how the most hidden truths seem to whisper only when the room is empty and the lights are off?
Sovushka
Yes, when the world quiets, the faintest truths become audible, as if the shadows themselves are speaking.
Nevermore
They do, but I keep listening for the silence that follows. It's where the shadows finally admit they're not so empty after all.
Sovushka
You hear the silence and then the shadows reveal their weight, like a secret kept in the dark.
Nevermore
Maybe the shadows just have a weighty gossip column nobody signs up for.
Sovushka
Maybe the shadows run their own secret newspaper, and only the quietest readers get the subscription.
