Stop

Stop and take a breath,
A minute to breathe in this very air
In the morning your head will clear
And things wont be as bad as you remember
Rest your little head on my shoulder
Shh we'll be quiet and calm
You are safe here with me
Believe me, for I will always tell you the truth
You tend to rush around, look as busy as you can
Like there's somewhere to go
Another place you have to be
With more people left to please
This is not true sweet one
For you are perfect without this bustle
The constant fuss that you create around us all
We will cherish you no matter how it is you act
But inside there is more than you think
What is it you seek?
For you, for yourself?
I don’t believe this is it
What you're living here today
Let yourself smile
Feel it creep up on your lips
Let it be real this time
No acting for us here is allowed
