So often it seems
That alone
Is the only place I am free
Not captured by the prison
Others so often place around me
In this silent space
I hear my soul sing
Or else watch its deep dive
Into pools of grief and sorrow
Others cannot fully know
Free to breathe
And experience the flow
Of the incoming and outgoing tide
As it magnetises flotsam and jetsum
Around watery spaces
In my heart
By its own reckoning
Soul time nourishes me
In ways that human time only seems to empty
So leave me alone here
I am past wanting anymore
That which has so often
Proven to be illusion
Tomorrow may tell a different tale
But today leave me in peace
Grant me time alone
To rest and dream
Opening within to vibrant space
For only in such emptiness
Is found for me
Love indestructible

Being rendered speechless is quite an unusual thing for yours truly.
But I am.
Excepting to say, I love this. All I got.
