Sit with me in silence.
Let us share the softness it supplies.
Feel together it’s healing hand
the tender touch
that stills the stress and strains
that reigns too often
in our daily lives.
Let us bask as one
in the solace
of soundless space
whisper sweet nothings
into empty air
that will fills us with hope
and erase our despair.
Now, more than ever
as our world slows
as stillness settles
on machines, motors
Life as we know it
our mind struggles
to abate the worry
fear, anxiety
Still silence is a friend.
A comrade.
A shoulder on which to rest.
So come,
sit with me
in silence
until solace
soft and reassuring
settles our souls.
Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history baby
Every time you come ’round
