You could hear my silence
You could read my mind
You could see my soul
You could feel my heartbeat
You could see the smile before it reached my lips
You could make me feel warm and loved
With just a glance
We didn't need words between us
Nor touch or sight
There was a time like that.....
Now between you and me
There's a river in spate
Overflowing with words.
Meaningless shallow words.
Hurting demeaning words.
Unkind undeserved words.
Cruel hateful words.
I watch you ,waiting....
You watch me, waiting....
Who will cross the river first?
Hoping for a miracle.
Waiting.....
As if on cue, we both take a step forward.
Our eyes hopeful,
Pleading.
Lips silently praying.
We keep moving forward
Till we reach each other.
We could hear each other though our lips are silent.
We could feel our hearts beating together
As we intertwined our fingers.
Questions and doubts??
The eyes answer-
Wordless.
Eloquent.
Brimming with emotions.
Soul searching.
Eyes never lie......
Words do.
