quietly until your heart speaks
when the real emerges and you begin to speak
I will wait on the shape that you choose
and when your eyebrows elevate and your pupils dilate
oh… I will wait for that pause, that shutter in your voice
when the truth takes hold and you quake
I will hold your hand to let you know your not alone
cause the words that are remembered are quiet, soft and often whispered
I am a mirror of your memory, a master storyteller
patient is my middle name, so I will wait.
