He said it

That I am possible

But I was too busy and stupid

Listening to your speechless opinions.

I didn't hear you speak a word

But I was already judging you for probably judging me

I became a recluse because I was busy being too sensitive

I have imagined that you jilt and get me to jitter with your supposed murky eyes,

And shoot at me bullets with your probable pseudo lips.

I was so lost in my thoughts; I didn't see you approaching

You said "hello" with a lucid smile

And "my God!" You were the brightest, soothing and friendliest with your words.

Now it dawned on me,

I was just childish

Doubting God when He said it in his word,

Confirmed by your comforting and lauding words.

Now I know better

I will never again be the one standing in my way!
