silence sits, waiting for me...


in these moments of solitude, 
between passing showers of tears 
and momentary quakes of fears, 
silence sits, waiting for me.

i sit beside her quietly, 
but she doesn't even notice me.
thoughts frolic mercilessly across my consciousness, 

stimulating every nerve ending they can find,
even those that carefully try to hide.

echoes resound within my brain
of words that passed on by,
(some not worth repeating)
and silence sits, waiting for me.

everything is gonna be alright
stay strong and keep the faith
all will be well. be upful and bright.
sending love and blessings.
you are not alone.

there
silence sits,
waiting for me
and i am grateful.

JAH LIVE. HAPPY ETHIOPIAN NEW YEAR!!!

*may you all be blessed with GIFT OF JEWELS ;)

Dear Se'Lah - Love.
So good to "see" you, feel you, hear you and almost touch you. I too wait for silence - a place of calm and quiet - it comes from time to time - briefly but it comes.
Praying for the silence
Love Gail,
peace.....
