Busy Poem by kyvin Nash

I lied and said I was busy
I was busy;
Not in a way most people understand.

I was busy...
Relaxing, at peace...
Giving this body what it needs,
A time alone, finding myself-
Away from any influence,
Opinions and everybody's sense.

I was busy...
Inviting Divine guidance,
maybe I was praying or meditating,
It could be that I was reading or fasting,
I was busy doing nothing, I guess!
I'm not expecting anyone to understand.

I was busy...
With something of great importance,
Like...Silencing irrational thoughts,
And calming a racing heart.
I was busy disconnecting from feelings,
Emotions and pleasures of this world.

I was busy...
Very...very busy,
More than I've ever been.
I know it sounds like an excuse,
But from now-on, its what I'll choose.
I won't say or explain,
Neither will I apologize for anything.

I'm busy
Very, very busy,
Not in a way most people understand.
