Day 282 "I Heard You But I Won't Listen...Yet"

I know you are trying to speak the truth to me, I just don't want to hear those words quite yet.

I know that you have my happiness in your best interest, but your words go against my comfortable lies...your words break my will.

I have always known what you have been trying to tell me, I know that you know that, we know that I am not ready to listen the way that you need me to...we know that I have to be ready by now.

Why can't your truth sound like my desires?

Why do you have to show me another path that I am supposed to walk, instead of the one that I have been trying to?

Why can't you just for once stop looking out for me?

I know why you can't stop though, and I appreciate you for it, for I would be just as stubborn if I had to save you as well.

I would show you the truth, even if it meant that it may divide us for a time.

Not all desires can be left unchallenged, and even when I covered my ears, I still heard your truth.

Sometimes I just choose not to listen, even though I heard you the first time.
