| listern with your heart. when you listern to me you affirm me but your listerning must be real
sensative and serious not busily looking around
not with a worried or distracted frown
not preparing what to say next but giving me your full attention
i have ideas to share feelings which to often i keep to my self
deep questions which struggle inside me for answers
i have hopes which are not easy to share
i have pain fear and guilt also hidden there
these are the sensative areas and a real part of me
but it takes courage to share them
please show an interest when i do with your eyes or a occasional nod
attuned not only to pick up the spoken word but also a glimmer of hope
i may show a look of pain a hesitation a struggle
which may suggest something as yet too deep for words
listern all i ask is that you listern and care. |
