spreadsheets

spreadsheets
numbers upon numbers
you called me 
your voice equated purity
plus and minus
-a few-
degrees;
spreadsheets
letters and symbols
kindled, 
rekindled
dismantled,
you handled
(it)
for I am
still 

so
empty

 so estranged 

so lost

so displaced

everywhere I go, 
in every crowd 
in word that I know 
in every word 
that I've heard 

-detachment-

though in love
they call me sister
embrace: so warm

a hundred times a day 
sisters I meet on my way 
sisters I stand next to when I pray

-I miss God-
-the missing link- 
-the connector of souls-
....how could I ever think....
any different
-Reality-
