LISTENING TO MY HEART(poem)

"one sees well only with the heart. what is essential is invisible to the eye."

- Antoine de Saint Exupery 

 As I sat still in silence,

and let it get intense.

I tried to listen to my heart,

to find a way out of the menace.

Eccentric though i may be called,

for talking to myself.

blind is the world that cant see,

my heart is who i go for help.

For patiently it listens.

and such secrets it knows thus.

judging eyes left far behind,

it watches me make a fuss.

as I mess over words,

and tumble over tears.

speak of my deepest desires,

and deepest of deep fears.

I speak to my heart,

and patiently I wait,

for answers that without words,

find a way to communicate.
