into the vacuum
when memories are no longer enough
I am listening to no sound
longing to fill the space
left behind by times past
what I feel with you is lasting
the stillness we share continues to give me peace
our connection alive in the absence of being close
not wanting to replace us
I am moving deep within
with and without you
not going to borrow trouble from a future imagined
nourishing my heart from what remains
and is breathing now
