…It’s just that I’ve been so busy, is all.
I appreciate you reaching out so much
but the dog-walking takes up a lot of time
and my eyelashes require a lot of work
to say nothing of the pill sorting.
Really, you wouldn’t believe how the hours go!
Thanks for thinking of me. It’s very kind indeed.

There’s a way to listen to find the truth.
Just pay attention. Be ruthless
in looking for the signals.
Just keep digging until you find the hints that you need.
You needn’t plead to find your answers.
They’re fleeting, like dancers.
You just have to catch them. You just have to look.
You just have to listen.

…listen, I’m so thankful for the offers, but I can’t.
I’ve been sick.
I didn’t get your message.
My phone’s acting up.
I’ve been on a cleanse.
I’m going through some changes.
Something just happened.
I’m really not ready.
It’s not you.

You just have to listen.
They’re easy to hear
if your ears are ready.
