Voices
Let me tell you about the voices that come as a flood to my mind
Of the whispers that creep in, in the middle of the night
Spreading deceit and lies of me
Voices that come to delude me and blind me of the truth
To stir up anger and cause offence to manifest
These voices constantly uttering words
Pushing and prodding to be heard
Seeking attention their primary motive
Sent to distract me from my course
I close my eyes and open my spirit
To hear the one voice that is within me
The still small voice that always leads me
The calm that always steers me
Then my ear muffs come on, drowning out all the voices except one
The one that resides in me
The voice that matters always
The voice that speaks of truth and eggs me to love
The voice of the one I call my friend
