I cannot know how you
feel without listening,
to the space between your sighs…
as you breath in,
chest rising,
inhaling,
receiving your mother’s cries
like a flower sucking on rain after a drought.
I hear you in my own heart, tossing,
around.
Exhale slowly, please,
then shout like a bull horn blasting…
(I hear not a sound.)
I freeze,
scribble onto my pad,
take chart notes, furiously,
giving you all I have left
to give through my listening.
Return,
come back.
come out,
learn.
learn.
