whispers, fading into nothingness,
grasping shadows like air;
fragments... lost?

the hum, electric hymn
woven into fibers, beneath skin,
invisible -- inaudible;
yet ever-present,
crashing in waves;
gentle.

broadcast across desolate lands,
a call -- it?
answer?
sound like oceans crashing,
mimicking the heart,
thud, thud,
broken verses scattered -- sand.

alleys of the mind,
cobwebs cling to thoughts - scurrying sands,
Stillness?

old letters to spirits,
whispered promises echoed back
promises never made,
brief interlude into now --
return.
