Silence

Silence is what they hear when they are ready to listen.

Enveloping silence.

"What are you thinking about?"

Patient silence.

Only then the tightrope becomes wet grass they step on barefoot and get goose pimples.

Silence, and hugs that hide from the future.

Silence and hopes, rather than expectations.

Silence blinded by the sun.

Silence they feel comfortable riding.

Loud silence.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing."

"I'm sorry. I thought you said something."

They did.

Silence is sometimes the best way to say the things that are really important. Silence is sometimes such a complex and rich way of saying what one really means that is worth to be reminded.

sometimes silence is the only (and/or best) way to communicate, and it's most enjoyable when the other's eyes are so pleasant to look at.
