I'm Hear

Tell me...explain
Talk till the blue in your face
Means internally no more pain
Draw from within
The rushing tide
And surface again
Breathing, alive
I am here
Quietly sitting
Welcoming your tidal wave
Embracing
Your heart
Drawing your words
Receding the aching
In your chest, your lungs
Burning with the pressure
Caught fire by longing
Gasping
Tell me...explain
Weep till the blue in your face
Means internally no more pain
Draw from within
The rushing tide
And surface again
Breathing, alive
I am here
Ravaged spirit
Take heart and draw near
Safe in my arms
Encircling your wounds
Embracing your heart
Knowing your fear
You are dear
Loved and wanted
My child
Consoled
Tell me...explain
Talk till the blue in your face
Means internally no more pain
Draw from within
The rushing tide
And surface again
Breathing, alive
I am here

  1. God has blessed you with a calmness and kindness that allows you to be this person - the one that listens and hears. Just keep in mind, you cannot always be this person. You cannot always give, take in and empathize with the world, be the quiet shoulder, the stronghold for everyone around you. Eventually you need to be heard too. Because you matter.
