Listening to You

Wait!
I'm having an emergency
I can barely breathe
my heart is hardly beating
Life can be so fleeting
And while I was
mending my broken wing
I was
missing most everything...
eveything but you.
I always have you.

Are you...
are you fading away?
No way.
All the choices I've made
or the pieces I gave
I feel like I'm falling..
If so, whose catching me?
Blind eyes that see -
see everything and not anything
at the same time.
That's me.

And now,
now is only a time
the time that we live in
where we can not wait
I don't even believe in fate
I just need to navigate
move now - no reason to hesitate
it's so so great
yet ordinary.

I need to be
everything you need me to be
time for me to demonstrate
my inner great
by being small.
And shine, like I can shine
and take in this Life
that which is mine.

I'll just be
be what I always will be...
Be me.
One who liberates his inner child
one who orchestrates and guides
one who is grateful for life
living each day
and not just to survive
but thrive.

I'll sing my songs
to you.
I'll bring my gifts
to you.
And remember how you
put up with me.
I will always be here
for you.
Like you are always there
for me.
