Alone

Words by Terry Schoenacker

Being alone.
For the purpose of later refreshing a connection.

Coming back together.
Separating yourself so you can hear the spirit speak.
Softly.

It’s knowing that you need fresh air, even if you still feel stubborn.

It’s the slow alteration of posture, the shoulders soften and your eyes look upward slightly.

Instead of staring forward you begin to look around.

Suddenly grace is attractive, and forgiveness starts to form sentences in your head.

Without being alone, the process would be lost.
But being alone is never the goal.

No matter what,
I will always want to be one with you.
