Tell Me

Sounds, and Songs, and Melodies
Sooth with a way to put at ease

Words have Power
              To Shower
                   Devour
                   Empower
           And Cower

Three people of who voices
I want ringing in my ears
Words of whispered breath
To bring then dry these tears

Tell me that you'll miss me
Tell me you wont forget me
Tell me that you'll think of me
Remind me of what I don't see

Tell me to slow down
Tell me to step back
Tell me to open my eyes
Remind me to not keep track

Tell me you can fill me
Tell me you can guide my task
Tell me you can heal me
Remind me just to ask

Softly spoken voices
Of which to listen for choices
Lover, Friend, and King
One absence can deeply sting

Tell me to be imperfect
Tell me to just fall
Tell me to take risks
Remind me failure is not a stall

Tell me that you'll talk with me
Tell me you'll cry midst commotion
Tell me that you'll laugh with me
Remind me to feel emotion

Tell me you are here
Tell me you are pouring
Tell me I bring you joy
Remind me you are adoring

In a constant battle to believe
Any words of affirmation
I desire just to hear
to change my expectation

Beginning to Be within the Busyness

Busyness can be burdensome

Busyness is basic

Busyness hides brokenness

Busyness is binding

Blessed to be busy. Better to be busy. Best to be busy  

Blessed. Better. Best.

Busy.

But to be.

Beginning to be.

Breathe in the being.

Boxed busyness and Botched being.

Books. Babes. Boys.

Bottles. Butter. Bales.

Busy, busy, busy

Begin to believe the blame

Busyness creates blindness

Busyness is not brave

Busyness feels like a beating

Busyness is blue

Bathed in busyness

But wanting being

Beauty in just being.

Be.
