Love is all about listening,
They say,
Love is when you listen and understand,
And yet, last night,
I had to take her stand,
But I didn’t do it out of might,
Well, I listened, listened to my heart,
I understood, her words and also the silent part,
To her, I became the devil,
Cause I couldn’t let her lie,
Hours passed, as she hated me more and more,
And all I could do was try,
So I saw her,
Eyes glistening like pearls,
Pulled her in my arms,
And glanced at her bitten fingers,
Whispered in her ears why I did it,
She didn’t say much,
Only tighter she then started to linger,
Well, I did,
I did listen to her,
Well, to her inner voice,
So yeah,
Love is all about listening,
And so I do,
Maybe she isn’t that brave to say some things yet,
But I know I’ll keep her before me,
And listening to that silence is something I love to do,
‘Helloooo!!!!’, I snapped out of musings,
‘ Did you even listen??’, she asks,
Well, did I??
