    jamesberkowitz:

    When the door closes

    And light shadows fall into darkness

    Where tender feelings

    Are hurt by unjust slightness

    We experience the process of letting go

    Into thin air

    Without lonely despair

    Into the heart

    Where the seed of love makes its start

    Into the sea

    Where the salt of our bodies runs free

    Into the soul

    Where the truth is known
