words for you.
always, always,
this silence.
nothing satisfies
nothing comes close to comfort
nothing
i've come to know a great deal
about longing in this time.
it is the note my heart plays.
i keep waiting, looking out windows
hoping. and for what?
i'm asked this all the time
all i can do is retreat to my familiar
yet cavernous silence, to wait some more
i go apart alone now, walk beside waters that once
glittered like diamonds. but the cold has come and they
bite, frothy teeth, grey with cold. and i bundle up and try
to last as long as i can before retreating indoors, into my
cavernous, ever present silence.
and these words for you.
always, always,
this love for you
always.
