Slow Down

It’s been a long time
Comin' round and smoothing out the edges
And slowing down
And listening
What is important?
What is your focus?
Don’t you go and stumble now
Are you listening?
Horsetail, horsetail we can heal it all
With plant medicine
Body, mind, and spirit crying
Slow down, slow down, slow down
Making a broth for a feverish head
Nah, I’m no stranger to
Loneliness
Are you struggling?
Sweeter than lavender
Years in the making drink it up
It’s your nature
But I’m struggling
Coping with all of it
To hell with enlightenment
Clearly, I am no good at this
Who’s even listening?
Take it all on, like you know what you’re doing
Try not to lose yourself out there
Are you listening?
