the sound comes in waves.
it’s kind of erratic at first
but it sinks in,
eventually.
it settles in place.
where it’s always been.
where it’s meant to be.
i like to smooth it out-
to feel it brush against the fibers
of my being.
the white space is soaked in its existence.
i prefer it that way.
i will always prefer it that way.

I think of many types of sounds from this: breathing of a person next to me, the ocean waves on the shore, distant and muted sounds of children playing — and my damn tinnitus! One observation … are you avoiding the possessive form of it’s (it is, it has, etc.) for a reason? ee cummings would be proud, by the way.

Haha, wow…. ee cummings.. I don’t even know what to say. Thank you, really. That means a lot.
To answer your question, it was around 3 AM and I was feeling lazy so I just didn’t include any proper punctuation. I fixed it!
Haha thank you as always for your keen observations and comments. 🙂

I can relate to the lazy part. I resemble that statement.
