Into the quiet...muffled essence of love lost, refracted and faded.

Into the quiet...each moment incremented into the sentence on the page

Into the quiet...time sequestered nuances captivated

Into the quiet...black and white shadows colorless and blind

Into the quiet...into the quiet...into the quiet

silence as a way of life...closeted and alone just the way he likes it

Into the quiet....loneliness isn't reason enough to change

Empty is as empty does....self defined acceptance comfortable in the quiet

Quiet, quiet....silence is what he's into...

Into the silence, alone in all alone

I hang my head as I walk away, heading toward the sounds

Into the music, into the light, into my life...
