If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
An excerpt from the lyrical genius of Leonard Cohen. This verse is as captivating as it can be. Intended to be a prayer, but I find use to it.
In a sense, I kind of live by this ethos. I’m only talkative at work because it’s too boring if we all keep quiet. Though I admit it’s a bit too noisy most of the time. If anyone has interacted with me, I’m not a conversationalist. I will answer questions as if I answer fill-in-the-blanks. I hate small talks because they are too uninteresting. If you want me to rant my mouth without limits, we have to have an uber interesting topic between us.
