At the End of a Long Day

Free-Verse Poetry

At the end of a long day
Sometimes
These words
And the people that they reach
– Muffled whispers
Drawn to attentive ears –
Are all that we have
/Forming/
In lines and hidden passages
Perceptible only to those who are open
To the truth
That lies in the spaces between
Like fine threads
Strings that reach
To tie us together
Spanning such immeasurable distances
Crossing space
And time
That we may be together
If only for a brief moment
But also which may be summoned once more
As needed
As dictated necessary
By context and complexity
At the slightest inclination
At the beginning of a great darkness
At the break of dawn
And at the end
Of a long day.
