Sorrowful

The voices in my head are so loud

That it's hard to focus on what they're saying

Or decide which ones to trust

All telling me what's best for me

Some spew optimism

Others drool depression

Anxiety is throwing a fit

Anger is brooding in the corner

But in all this confusion and uncertainty

The sound I hear

Above all else

Is your voice

From the first time you said 

"I love you."

 

The memory of your face

How your eyes said it seconds before your voice

And for a moment

There is a calmness

And I can think clearly

That despite all these fears and unknowns and blissful ignorance

The one thing I can focus on

And trust

And always have

Is that I love you too

And no one can take that away from me
