tears

i've been quiet in the places i usually rattle along at.
when things hit deeply, i get quiet.

anything i might say feels like noise.

the horror in oslo has hit hard.

i am holding all those people in my heart.

and out of respect to them, i just don't want to add to the
noise of the world right now.

and i want to allow myself the tears that i find coming over
and over. it's all i have to offer.

quietly holding the people of oslo in my heart,
and crying for the world.......
