In the morning
the light flickers—
every place it touches is unnamed.
I forget
my silk-spun dreams & losing heart.
I am open. I am soft.
I move into the silence
but I know I can’t stay.

Wow lovely
It is…I’m with you
🙂
at least good to stop by each day, if even for a moment –
Yes…
Lonely yet warmed for the moment.
Yes, me too…but I re-read it several times to return to the peaceful easy feeling… 🙂
Beautiful! <3
