the way You used to speak

I remember the way You used to speak to me

bold, bright brush strokes, sharp

contrast against the dark

undeniable, loud, impossible

to mistake for another

what was small, hard

secret within, warmed

at Your touch, floods

of light spilled

into every corner

now You speak to me, quiet

 teaching me how to listen
