a voice came to me

Published on by thelonelyauthorblog

During a depressing night where my headaches and dizzy spells drained any hope I had, I reached for my phone and discovered an email with a voice recording.

There were delightful pauses in this one sided conversation, but everything about the message, her soft voice, her pauses, her sweetness revitalized me.

Sadly, this little poem does not do justice. I dedicate this to that voice to die for. Thank you. 🌹

a voice came to me

loneliness thundered
when a soft voice came to me
landing on my five o’clock shadow
like a lightning bug
determined to tickle my cheek
while her little healing light
outshined my torment
stifling the echoes inside my heart
as her deafening silence spoke to me
her voice shined like the stars
illuminating my night
resembling a constellation of fireflies
absorbing the darkness
in my universe of misery

  19. I can only wish you success in your waiting… As we all are.
    Our schools now have shuttered for the remainder of this year. We are supposed to cover our faces when out…(at least in stores… though some also do so when walking around the block…)

    This is a very trying time for those huggers among us… all we can use is our words.
    May they wrap around some of the empty spaces to bring you some comfort.
