Please Answer Me 

Whether it be tonight, today, or yesterday;
and tomorrow too, even if it brings sorrow,
you have my attention always.*

Whether asleep or awake,
daydreaming in the meadows,
or adrift upon a stormy lake;
you have my attention always.

Whether you be a door                                                                                        or a house without walls,
and only a floor; you have my
attention always.

I know your heart and have already
entered the tender frames of your mind,
because you have my attention always.

Words are so costly to me,
and the words that I speak are 
more expensive than gold or silver,
more precious than rubies or diamonds.

But because you have my attention always,
love will find a way.  Like an earthquake, I shall then awake                         and ascend from what seems like a deep and long sleep.                             And then the silence shall ascend
from the deep; and from the depths of my heart,                                             my lips shall speak. 04132016  *An answer to, Love                                    Finds Ways To Speak, by Mystic Rose. PS Contest,
