Telling To Me Softly

Telling To Me Softly

A Poem by Brittany

Melting into me word by word
Too beautiful to forget, too beautiful to understand
Light shining in as tears stream down my face
Everything is hitting home in one place
Touched by a peaceful melody, sweeping across my heart
Moving in close to fear, making it depart
All that remains is the inevitable voice in my ear..


 
The loud voices are muted and the chaos stops..
The street turns empty as people head home..
And then it's just me bowing my head in inspiring hope...
Thinking of what it means, what it shows...
Too amazed to cry and too amazed to smile...
An overwhelming love completes me as the song ends...
More pieces come together and mend...
The world is still and I'm sitting all alone...
It's just me and his voice that's known...
 


I wipe away a hanging tear as I turn into life...
I'm more empowered..I'm more in tune...
His words carry with me...
Reminding me of its meaning none too soon...
Engaged by the wonders of creation he tells...
Full of heavy truths and roaring swells...
All he has to do is open his mouth, close his eyes...
And say what he knows to make me pour out my smiles and sighs...



Connecting to the pain, to the happiness in one breath...
Keeping the moment silently to myself as others sit in awe..
Dreaming far away from troubles...
Picking everything up as it crumbles...
A sudden burst of claps and some tears..
He walks away, taking a slow step...
The people in the background are bringing in the memory they want to be kept...
