"....have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Listen...


When life stands still
Words from your mouth bound to spill
Listen to your soul
Deep within
Your body that it fills

When all seems quiet
Not a soul in sight
Listen to the ocean 
Hidden wisdom
From a shell you’ll hear if you might

When you are alone
Without a shoulder to lean on 
Listen to the moon
Soothing tales
As whispers through stars you’ll be shown

When you are in doubt
No matter what it's about
Listen to your heart
Hold on
It knows your deepest fears without a shout

When you are lost
And,
You’ve got to find your way at any cost
Listen to your friends
They know somehow
What it is you want most!
