hello, I'm here

 
I'm feeling off today but I wanted to talk to you
I felt you on the air calling to me
wondering where my soul went
I can only explain to that quiet place
where I disappear for a moment

a place of solace when I don't feel good
a place where my injured soul can heal
I felt you calling me from that existence
of suspended thought where I don't think anything
but you were there, inside my sanctuary

I could feel you calling me back to the thick of things
where blood and muscle meet soul
calling me back to life

I couldn't ignore your call
I wandered through the day feeling your pulse
I know this is an odd thought
I went to that silent place where no one can touch
but you were there touching me and caressing me

my internal voices hushed
and asked me if I was sure about you
jealousy arose and my spirit was provoked
I said I wanted you in my inner circle

I rose to the challenge and greet you there
in the here and now of things
I will be present even if it's in my strangeness
to touch you and let you know I'm here for you
