"Just as you wail
loneliness
through the
chords of
your heart,
so can you
tighten these strings
to communicate
with others.
Sit with your ache
and give it sound,
grieve it, unbound
by the confinements
of shame.
Let loneliness sing itself
through the silence
until it becomes
a meeting place
for all other
homeless hearts.
Soon you will see
that the company
you seek
is seeking you;
an empty heart
sits by
an abandoned
radio wave
listening for your
signals of hope.
Let love
and its longings
connect you
to these
singing strings
being strummed
throughout the world...
for loneliness
is not at all silent,
but a deafening
transmission
being heard
by all of our hearts.
