Silence Understood

Inside this personal isolation
Rivers of deep contemplation flow.
From a place familiarly far away
And on into a vast ocean of clarity.
I surrender to this transient dimension of balanced tides
Finding solace in these rich and earthy banks.

Blank faces, words and aimless eyes
Justify my retreat to private release
Where I sit with feet at waters edge; my silent reprieve.
In this vulnerable state a comfort screams to share.
My thoughts extend these words to you
With hopes that you might hear.

This quiet rush of emotion moves beneath my feet
You read seeing the silence soaked in paper and dry ink –
Knowing the words recede to show the flow of how I think.
