Being Near Me



"Being Near Me"
By Doug Daniels Copyright 2010

Your sweet words melt in my mouth,
Did you taste my joy?
The sour note you chose to leave on,
Leaves you gone, and me wondering.

Did you mean to say those things,
Or were there things you meant to say?

Truth is a bell that rings,
Brings the Truth when it has the strength to...

Tell me,
I'm listening, always listening
for you to hear.
Hear me,
I'm whispering, always whispering
for you to see,
Near me,
You are near me.
I am so close to...Being near me.

Smiling faces betray their consultation,
Carry a message of dismay,
Summoned are the social graces,
Tidings of trouble, rise to trouble me.

Did they mean to say those things,
Or were there things they meant to say?

Truth is a bell that rings,
Sings the Truth when it has the strength to...

Tell me,
I'm listening, always listening
for you to hear.
Hear me,
I'm whispering, always whispering
for you to see,
Near me,
You are near me,
I am so close to...Being near me.

There is One Love; One Life; One Truth.

And I know it when I'm near me
I show it when I'm near me.
I am so close to...Being near me.
