The silence in the elevator

🔇 The silence in the elevator is the loudest of silences.

Two people, a breath of space, and an invisible wall between them.
We look at each other without looking. We sigh, pretend distraction.
As if talking were dangerous. As if proximity scared us.

Perhaps the silence in the elevator is the perfect symbol of our time: together, yet far apart.

I just press the button for my floor and stare at the numbers. It's a 30-second truce in the war of social interaction. I cherish it.

It's a social loading screen. Everyone's waiting for the next level, but the connection is lagging.

The light in elevators is terrible, but the faces are incredibly honest. Full of unspoken thoughts.
