my voice shall go with you

2:38 a.m. i'm far from home. quiet time.


there are many times when i fall silent, barely having the urge to speak. there is so much depth and beauty in silence. sometimes i'm really pensive. it's in a moment like this that i truly find enjoyment in quieting my thoughts, settling, and taking notice of how rich one single moment can be. i hear his wisdom whispering within me. in my silences, he is there. he is here with me now. there is oneness. one soul into another. blissful union.

Rilke.

Silent friend of many distances, feel how your breath enlarges all of spacelet your presence ring out like a bellinto the night.

Center of all centers, core of cores,almond self-enclosed and growing sweet – all the universe, to the furthest starsand beyond them, is your flesh, your fruit.

pure. infinite. warm.
i want to fall quiet more often, from time to time, to relish this infinite peace.
peace exists in each silent moment.
penetrate.
