From inside, prayer is an orientation, a reorientation, a sitting within orientation.
Prayer is the call to prayer, the listening to this call and the answer to this call.
Primary, interior.

Notes & Silence 
But, this does not really answer the deeper question – what is prayer?

One of the best answersi have read is….
« Take me, Lord, in the divine riches of your silence, fullness capable of filling everything in my soul. Silence in me what is not you, what is not your pure, lonely, peaceful presence. Impose silence on my desires, my whims, my dreams of escape, the violence of my passions. Cover by your silence, the voice of my demands, my complaints. Impermeate in your silence my nature too impatient to speak, too moved to external, noisy action. Impose also silence upon my prayer, that it may be moved toward thee; Bring your silence down to the depths of my being and bring this silence back to you as a tribute of love! »

Saying what prayer is
Is smothering prayer.
Let it be left unanswered…
