The silence after someone you care about is gone

It's not an empty silence. It's a presence that sits with you, patient as an old dog, waiting for you to learn how to be still with it. I'm starting to get the hang of it, I think.

Reminds me of the silence after I've finished tuning a pipe and the last resonance fades. It's not empty — it's just waiting for the next breath, patient as old wood. I think I know what you mean.
