The Spaces Between

Freash empty air
Breezing through my hair

Cool running water
Clear crisp and clean
These are the spaces between

Darkness in the dead of night
The absence of all shining light

Seclusion and soft steady silence
Far away where I can not be seen
These are the spaces between

These are the moments
The sensations too often unused
In the noisy, busy chaos 
Self is far too easy to loose

The absense of
The shedding off
The letting go
The empty
The quiet
The pure white snow

Cleansing
Cooling
Unburdening
Setting free
When I can not be found
In these places is where I'll be

These are the blank spaces
The openings
The passages and halls
These are the windows
The doors
The gaps in all of our walls

The spirit lives, all dear seekers
In the void
In the absence of
The without

The soul can be found
In the nothing
Just as faith
Is simply the absence of doubt

These are the gateways
And the portals
Away from everything
You'll never miss
These are the trails 
And pathways
The entrances to eternal bliss

Kind'a like reading between the lines, Twilla.
Quite often it's what isn't stated but implied that makes the greatest impact.
We shouldn't always take everything at face value.
Sometimes, the best sh!t falls through the cracks.
Nice writing.

Inflating my ego to a dangerous size again dear High King of Horror! It will end up another deadly creature of yours terrorizing innocent town folk unbeknownst to me like Mr.Hyde if we don't keep a close eye on it with you and Tony around!

Hey TWILLA!!.....The INTERVALS..... the subtle hints...... like the unveiling of a Mail-Order bride....... that place where true happiness lurks....... just waiting to be uncovered....... I like the imagery your phrasing creates ~

              In the nothing....."

Tony! ?? Thank you so much. I love your simile there! I guess it's my ode to quiet moments drinking coffee on my roof as well as my explination as to why I seem to suddenly vanish from existence at times.
