Stillness longs for me
To embrace meaning
Taking time to lean deeply into
Those healing feelings
That arise
In silence
Even as current despair shows me so many things
Inside myself
I am mot proud of
The longing for love
Well it’s roots run deep
And even as we sleep
Our soul is bathing us
In our buried history
As simultaneously our body
Encompasses some growing portion of
It’s vast totality
Life as we age becomes
Such an epic journey
Into deeper and deeper layers of ourselves
We could not grasp in any meaningful way before
Lonely as it may seem at times
I trust this silence
And the healing of the tear drops that fall
For none of this powerful grief
My body is releasing
Requires any consolation that lies beyond
The majestic reach
Of my infinite soul
