This Is Not For You...
This is not for you
I feel a breeze across my neck, and I hear a whisper in my ear
I’ve walked miles and days, seen good and bad, and
It tears my heart. I sit down and write letting me wander
Through the thoughts in my head, but remember this,
Is not for you.
I hear a whisper in my ear, telling me to breath, huff and puff
In and out, my legs keep going but I’m tired
I keep wanting to stop. I’ve stopped to write about anything
I want
Letting go, but remember this is not for you.
But part of this I sing to you hoping you will hear me……
I took a new breath to let you know, this isn’t a letter
This isn’t a love song, this isn’t a threat, and its
Not for you. Just be patient because I’m at a loss for words
Figuring out what to say but know this wasn’t meant for you
It seems a new breath is what I needed something to clear my mind
I fight the urge to let myself write about what hurts
And I see the pencil fits perfectly between my ring finger
And thumb and my ring sparkles in the light as I fight the
Temptation to write about evil, because this is not for you
If anything and everything could clear my mind, I’d be an airhead
I simply want to end my journey and stop walking
And it kills me to know I keep writing about you
I can’t stop for my left hand has no idea what the
Right is doing, and yet I keep writing words that aren’t for you
But part of this I sing to you hoping you will hear me……
I took a new breath to let you know, this isn’t a letter this isn’t
A love song, this isn’t a threat, and it’s not for you. Just be patient
Because I’m at a loss for words figuring out what to say but know,
This has turned into a loving, threatening letter that was indeed meant for you
