Forgotten Language

Sometimes your head gets in the way.
Strong and stubborn,
steering you right when something is clearly tugging left.
Sometimes your body holds you in it’s protective casing.
Just stay seated a little longer, it begs.
But if you listen,
and I mean really truly listen,
your heart speaks a language so clear
even the moon understands.
It’s a sweet whisper.
A language of it’s own.
Unspoken sounds that make up words
your soul knows by heart.
Give in.
Close your eyes and learn how to see.
Listen to silence and learn how to hear.
Your eyes and ears will lead you astray.
But your heart,
your heart will always take you
where you need to go.
