Your Voice
Having sunk that low
is not unique to me –
others have been there.
But my depths are
real and they are mine.
The saving force
came after the sound
of the ringing
when I heard your voice.

About John White
I've written off and on my entire life. It took years for me to finally take putting words together seriously. Now it's not, nor does it ever feel, like work. Writing daily has become habitual. No day is complete without words having appeared on the page.

God, it’s so profound and short, in a good way of course. It’s like I can see this person in my mind who matches the voice but it’s like…what tone is this voice? Very nice 🙂
