Listen

Listening on the inside
      Quietness remains

             Hearing the distant beat
                  Soul crying out 

                      Feel the energy
                         Reaching for control

                              Never knowing
                                When clarity is exposed

                                     Contentment is everlasting
                                           Realization of the future

                                                  Emotions deceive 
                                                      Nonchalantly taking hold

                                                            Destiny remains true
                                                                 Inevitably taking over

                                                                      Rewinding to the quietness
                                                                            Excepting reality as truth
