Closely Distant


anonymously in love
a secret whispered to the dark
where the wind carries my hope
close with a distance to go
on a certain journey
traveling to a free spirit

Wer seines Lebens viele Widersinne


She who reconciles the ill-matched threads
of her life, and weaves them gratefully
into a single cloth—
it’s she who drives the loudmouths from the hall
and clears it for a different celebration

where the one guest is you.
In the softness of evening
it’s you she receives.

You are the partner of her loneliness,
the unspeaking center of her monologues.
With each disclosure you encompass more
and she stretches beyond what limits her,
to hold you.


Rainer Maria Rilke

On a breeze sometimes is the best way to place a message like this as I believe it can be the best messenger there is when we are paying attention.  Enjoyed the thoughts much.
