Wholly One
Am I lonely since there is no other? Always and only now, my voice is heard Breaking silence, in prayer, thinking aloud. Were those conversations, validation? Mirrors to our presence, two together Purposeful of union, and existence. Ten thousand words, and surely thousands more Passed into the past like lines on water. Silence is sentence for the isolate. I listen out for angels in the void.
