Just Listen

Don't think or judge, just listen.

Because this is what happens when you try to run from the past. It just doesn’t catch up, it overtakes … blotting out the future.

All you could do was take on as much weight as you can bear. And if you're lucky, there's someone close enough by to shoulder the rest.

There comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart. So you'd better learn the sound of it. Otherwise you'll never understand what it's saying.

So while it seemed like you were seeing everything, you really weren't. Just bits and pieces that looked like a whole.

So many versions of just one memory, and yet none of them were right or wrong. Instead, they were all pieces. Only when fitted together, edge to edge, could they even begin to tell the whole story.
