Simple Words

That voice in your head
The whisper in your ear
Those simple words is all it takes
And you're no longer controlled by fear

Wind blowing through leaves
It washes the cobwebs clear
The fear and pain that clouded you
Now lay under your thick veneer

The feeling ebbs,
The tide waters recede
And the hurts that made you ache
They all do seem
so small and light
Not your greatest of mistakes

Tears of rushing diamonds
Slithering down your cheeks
for all it took was those sweet words
to start the rush of leaks

Those simple words of love and care
To know you aren't alone
The angst that ran inside your veins
The fire inside had shown

But it is the rustling in the bushes
that is now a simple song
and the chimes tinkling in tune
that you knew all along

The breathing of a body
is now the melody of faith
and the sounds of the house creaking
is the harmony it creates

"See" it said,
"You're not alone
The Beautiful world still lives"
And so I lay my head to rest
on the simple words it said
