Solo
A gorgeous silence
fell on your departure,
air that once shimmered
ire and malice,
is now clear and free
and fit to be breathed, in
days were lost,
the minutes crept
into numb hours,
feet turned circles
into squares
dumb of what to do
where to go
the mind flooded
with vast arrays
of pictured thoughts,
emotions bubbled
to boil, then nothing,
blank screens
all the way round
anchoring self
onto a listing lull
instilled the sublime,
falling for the silence
and drifting into the
grace of peace
I find myself
beautifully solo
