Hush, turn down the volume of the world
Tune into your broken heart, turn the dial
Until you hear no more static, because
that is where you will find me
I've always been here for you to listen
I never left you, but when your pain
is overwhelming your heart overshadows my frequency
Close your eyes and rest for
you are safe within me
When I cannot take away the anguish
it breaks my heart, yet I wait
until you can hear me again

I appreciate your kind words.  This was actually a poem I wrote for a friend.  Her son passed away 4 years ago, and she feels far from God.

I would have never known it was a poem written about a child dying and you wrote it for the mother of the boy. It would help if you would have gave a short note above the poem something about why you wrote it. I felt like an idiot with my comments. I fixed my comments to reflect more truly the poem's reflection.

I am so very sorry. I did not mean to make you feel that way it was not my intention. I should have posted a little story about it.
