There doesn’t seem much to say tonight I just sit quietly, fist against one cheek Thinking of this whole need to write thing It’s not that I have anything to write about It’s not even that I write all that well It’s just a conversation I hold in my mind My body slows down and my mind just talks to me There isn’t really that much to say tonight Hints of luminous light meld with the dark horizon I remember dark nights when my family would read Music would play softly in the background All was quiet and I knew what peace felt like I knew what ‘family’ meant and family loved me unconditionally I don’t have anything to say tonight I just have memories that spin a tapestry to enfold me These are the merely little vignettes of my history I sometimes feel like the family historian For I know it was not all bad or sad Once we lit the night with knowledge, imagination and love No, I have little to say tonight But the little I have means so much to me. aziza |

"No, I have little to say tonight But the little I have means so much to me." it's a poignant little to say aziza I like it... |
