Sit

When words fail, sit

Thoughts of silence, thoughts of stillness Comfort, the gift, not of words

Of presence

When peace shatters, sit

Acts of silence, acts of stillness Calm, the force, not of power

Of strength When hope withers, sit

Dreams of silence, dreams of stillness Faith, the trust, not of self

Of rescue

In loss, in brokenness In weakness, in fear In the end of self

Silence, stillness

In darkness, in despair In heartbreak, in tears In the end

Silence, stillness

The light in darkness is there But never within That illusive reality craved Is something given

In silence, in stillness Who will come beside and

Sit
