“Listening Without Hearing”

sometimes my call to write
is louder than
my desire to make flags
my desire to love
my desire to meet
encourage
invite
develop
there’re just words that want
to come out
feelings that need
to be expressed
aloud

who I was
who I am
no comparison
but there is
same laugh
same eyes
same but new
same but knew

thinking of now
Who I choose
Who I follow
oh
how He must smile
knowing
planning
waiting
joining

God can’t become One
with one who won’t obey
obedience shows love
abiding

every moment
choosing to wait
choosing His Love
above seeking love
choosing His Heart
above a bed
choosing His Eyes
above being seen
wanted
desired

this poem may only make sense
to my heart
that’s okay
that’s where it’s from
and will always stay
