—An Indonesian YUMENUSHI COLLABORATION

Eloquentia Silentii
“They say the most intimate truths are not always spoken aloud. Sometimes, the deepest feelings are best expressed through a gesture, an object, a symbol.
A silent echoes of what the heart dares not say.”

ABOUT
A Silent confession doesn't always have to be about confessing romantic feelings. It can be any unspoken emotions—gratitude, guilt, longing, regret—anything that weighs on one heart.The key is: the confession must be non-verbal. No words, no direct explanations. Just gestures. Objects. Symbols. A subtle message hidden in something.Maybe it's a necklace with a sapphire pendant-because sapphire symbolizes sincerity and faithfulness. Or maybe it's a flower bouquet, carefully chosen with layers of meaning. A tangled mess of feelings that one can't put into words-but one hope they'll understand.
No words. No direct explanations. Just gestures, objects, and symbols. A subtle message hidden in something meaningful.
