Too Much the Levite

Too focused on myself
claiming that I am busy
taking on the world
when I should be seeking love
following the commands of my savior
humble before God
caring for my fellow man

Too much the Levite
busy, standing in place
crossing to the other side
when they need my aid
Changing only sometimes
dropping my files, my words
turning to the more important
when I am called by the Lord

The words of the Spirit
leading me to turn
guiding my steps
toward the man
the girls calling me
away from my
focus on myself
to who you want me to be
