STILL

Be Still
She said,
Be Still,
For your waters run deep,

And every drop of you,
Is an ocean in itself,
Lest you forget and drown,
In a single tear from your eye,

Be Still,
She said,
Be Still,
For your winds blow nowhere,

In this hurricane,
Be the eye and you might see,
Perhaps everything that spins around you,
Is where it is meant to be,

Be Still,
She said,
Be Still,
For you are here now,

In your persistence,
Perhaps the present is the place to be,
Not with the anxieties of the future,
Nor the miseries of the past,

Be Still,
She said,
Be Still
For in you I find solace,
~Frankhie
