Standing Still
The world keeps on spinning, day turns to night
Silence surrounds me, the darkness grew
Then the loud roar and flurry of activity begins anew
And there I am, left standing still
I cant seem to move
My feet are glued to the ground
I open my mouth but don’t utter a sound
And there I am left standing still
Days turn to weeks
And months turn to years
I stand rooted, frozen, my eyes filled with tears
And there I am left standing still
Why cant I go forward
Why am I stuck in this rut
I keep trying and fighting I want to move but
There I am left standing still
I never made the choice to move
I never broke free from the chains
Now just a cold empty shell remains
There I am left standing still
Everyone reached their goals
But my chances passed me by
I could’ve had it all but I didn’t even try
Why am I left standing still
Why didn’t I listen
Why didn’t I believe in all that I could be
I stood there while life passed by I let this happen to me
That’s why I am there left standing still
I didn’t take action
I let the doubt consume me
I never took the chance and broke free
So here I am left standing still
I felt so much the same, it is unbelievable. I was stopped in my tracks for so long, I just didn’t know how to do for my self. I couldn’t make my mind work in a way that meant anything to me. And people tried so hard to help me, tried not to tell me what to do , then had to tell me what to do. I was so lost, really lost, I didn’t know me, I didn’t trust me, or others,,,,, I was lost or what you call left standing still…..the same,,,,,,,before one min. I could see a thought come to realization. And then more short times of me, being found. It takes a long time, I still am growing and seeking to not hurt people, not get pissed when things don’t go my way. Don’t get board with people and want to get a way. If you are a christian then you know - I don’t want to get away from them to please me, it can be a time of sharing my faith.
I am so happy to have found you again in person relationship, I have really missed you. May Gods Grace, Faith, Love and Salvation be yours. Then you won’t be standing still, He will make ways for you to get out and make your life truly your life.
Love all you write and love you. May God Bless you today and always
Your dreams are still within your reach. You can do anything you set your mind to Jo. You are intelligent and caring and your whole life lies ahead of you.
Maybe you are standing still so you can listen to your heart and find your way. I am with you. Luve ya! Becky
