LISTENING

When I sit and listen to you,
your words come from deep inside.

They bounce off the walls of this enclosed environment.

They shock back through your lips,
and your eyes begin to shine.

So if I never open the box on the inside,
I will never see you on the outside.

If I say not a single word,
you will remain absolutely silent.
