Classroom of Silence


Limbo yet heaven 
What if….don’t dwell on what if, but what is…so what do I do with that? 
What is…is I am, simultaneoulsly , in limbo
In depression
Yet, content and joyful
I want to grow old …beautifully, respectfully, healthily, joyfully, actively
I feel like he  has already grown old
Too old in spirit 
We need  change, more motive to believe we are already  happier
More motive to not be defensive and short 
More time 
Less contact
..with work, the world, the  noise  
…to leave time for joy
Room for quiet conversation
Room for pensive reflection
..of good thoughts..fond memories..of childhood..of our years together….of  friends past and present….of  children…times gone by, times to come
.fond thoughts… wakefulness…no pain …..
Mentally , spiritually, bodily
No worries, no soap boxes, no fear..
Openness ..to rediscover love ….with what’s in  front 
To rediscover energy….energy to move, to explore, to enjoy 
To Live….
