We Fade
We fade
Like old jeans
Familiar….only dimly
In a moment.
We speak
Words no less wise
Lost in the din
Of silence
We reach out
Touching
The emptiness
Called now
We watch
The sun slow set
Into our darkness
We listen
To the passing breath
Of life
We share
The gentle love
Of being near
We are
And so it is
