i'm learning to be quiet now
i'm trying to be still
all the lies i try and tell myself
will one day make me ill
and the web of false assumptions
i've been building every day
is a labyrinth of gossamer
that binds me to the Way
i cannot move i cannot act
my every limb is aching
as i attempt to heal from
a life of endless faking
all over now? i dare not say
but if it is your will
i'm learning to be quiet now
i'm trying to be still.
