Come Back To Me

#SayingItPlainly

It’s coming back or

was it make believe,

it’s coming back

couldn’t see the forest thru the trees,

it’s coming back

was it a trend that never settled in -

it’s coming back to me

did I push it away,

it’s coming back to me

times are changed, the new is now,

it’s coming back to me.

It’s all coming back to me

foregone conclusion having no wheels,

it’s all coming back to me -

an unchained melody not spoken,

it’s all coming back to me.

Whats coming back?

a thought never harnessed

never vocalized without varnish,

yet it began to tarnish

from the decay of unbelief.

a thought revealed prematurely

from the gumption of pride,

is a thought given up at ransom;

remaining a thought in perpetuity

depleted activity -

forgoes creativity stopping the flow.

God-given-thought

came back to me

arising from the breath of infancy.

Shhhh! Mums the word,

no it’s not absurd.

The thought/idea came back to me,

out of dormancy casting fervently;

vision - create - action

- stuck in the tailpipe of delay no more -

was it the mother of invention or

Gods orchestrated intention?

As His artistry won the wager -

Flourishing in the front,

& momentum at the tailwind.

all is ripe (AIR)!

    I dig this, feels like taking a deep breath and getting to work. It’s kinda cool that inspiration and respiration have the same root word. In that way creativity can feel like an inhale of energy and motivation and exhale of creative effort
