silence

Go gather by the humming sea,
Some twisted, echo-harbouring shell,
And to its lips thy story tell,
And they thy comforters will be,
…

W. B. Yeats

Sometimes I just long for silence. Sometimes, words want to leave my lips, but won’t make themselves known. A whisper, lost in the howling of the wind. Deep breath. Sometimes it’s just fidgeting in between dreams, a commotion before becoming dormant again.

I desire quiet sometimes. When everything around me is slowing down, I want to greet that rhythm and embrace it.

A whisper…

Humming…
