Revisiting old words

She listens to a voice without sound


and somehow still gets the message.

Maybe it was something only she could understand.

Sometimes the messages that come to us in the strangest ways


are the ones we most need to hear.


She feels her soul lighten a bit when the message arrives.


Maybe she will be able to soar now above the pain and fear.


Sometimes she finds it easy and sometimes it is impossible.


Is she losing the faith she desperately hangs onto or


is she just growing again?


She speaks in symbols that no one but God seems to understand.


He listens when no one else does. Maybe they have


their own language just for the two to get.


Sometimes they communicate with no words at all.


Those are the best conversations.
