The Whisperer

The Whisperer I was standing on the edge I'd long for a new beginning But I couldn't look down, but I couldn't look down I'm a coward A million voices scream in my head And I felt sure that I would give in So why couldn't I now, why couldn't I now Your voice was louder By design, God gave me feelings And by design they shall not kill But when the noises overwhelm me I feel sure that they will Oh, liberation, comes in whatever form to save me I am burdened And then the whisper comes Your whisper in the breeze Your whisper's what I'm needing Quiet bursts So to hurt The whisperer And though I struggle through the days now It helps to know that you are listening So I just wait it out I'll wait this out, by the hour But by the design God gave me feelings And by the design they shall not count But when the noises over run me I felt sure the day will Oh, liberation, comes in whatever form to save me I am burdened And then the whisper comes Your whisper in the breeze Your whisper's what I'm needing Quiet words soothe the hurt whisperer
