FEELINGS

They are neither wrong nor right
But they are there, none the less, and are very real…

When you truly love someone, you listen with your heart…

To hear, to share, to show concern,
To listen with compassion.
To think of how the other feels,
To help with reason and ration.

If you dare to show you care
When they, their feelings bare...
All hearts will melt, as love is felt
and talk won't be so rare.

Don’t judge or tell them how to feel,
Just care enough to listen.
Put yourself in their shoes,
Think of their position.

A loving phrase, a kind caress,
A note of understanding…
Not judgment and defensive words
Those turn out so demanding!

When this occurs, new feelings
come and make them feel deceived.
But love and kindness take them
To a place yet unachieved.

A place to be completely free
To share what's in your heart…
A place to share all that you are,
A place to never part.

The freedom to feel what you feel
And share it with a friend
Would be the greatest thing in life,
The ultimate, the end.
