My heart is too loud to see

I was going to write about

The art of seeing

But

Sometimes my heart is too loud.

I can’t see

I can’t speak

There are no words

It swirls and it spins

It grabs my attention

Pulls me into

Uncertainty

Demanding

That I slow down

Stop

Stop looking out

Or searching for clever words

to hide behind

Stop

Just stop

Be

In the middle

Of the swirl

Inside my chest

Wait

Just wait

Stay

Here

Now
