Take a step back
Give others space
Allow silence to speak
Watch the other’s face.
For given time
Another will share
Their deepest fears
Their heart lay bare.
My words should be few
Eyes and ears wide open
To hear and understand
Any words unspoken.
For many find it hard
To communicate
Yet are searching for a person
To whom to relate.
So I’ll listen and wait
Be very quiet
To know what lies
In the other’s heart.
