Somewhere between the fight to stay
and the courage to let go
Love burns furious…
Tearing away… in fear of it consuming you if
you stay
Hesitant of returning to inevitable loss
The waiting and the wonder…grief…on
hold
Knowing nothing for certain yet knowing it is
not
forever…
Claiming all that you can…in quiet
moments…
Gathering and holding this furious love
To sustain you…to comfort you in the time
after
After the departure from this
life
Time stands still …and yet time moves so
rapidly…
In a blink…
Silence…a pause…
pause that should be filled by the next
…breath
hold very still… and wait for another …
Is this…the
last…
No… just a practice… A practice for both of
us
We both need practice…practice for this
change
Longer they get…the silence readies us
for…something…something
new…
Never have we been so…
brave
And then…
In the hush…
In the hush
Exhale …
In the hush…see with the heart…not the
eyes
Immersed in grace
Tread gently…these times are
fragile
Gather up a new collection … Pieces…
memories
A different way to hold…
With the heart and not…
hands
Moving forward… Time is slow…
Deepening the heart…
to accommodate our new…
relationship…
Until…we meet up
again
Searching for you… In the
hush 
what's that shiny thing?
