    Sitting on the Porch

    written by: Irina S Mann
    Category: Friendship
    I can sit on the porch and say nothing,
    And you would understand how I feel.
    You would slip your fingers to my own,
    And try to heal this broken hearted deal.

    I can sit there feeling the misery of life,
    And you would understand me through.
    You would touch my shoulder just once,
    And I would know the friend I have is you.

    I can sit sobbing softly on the outside,
    But you would know I am being brave.
    You would hug me for several moments,
    And I would show you I am being naïve.

    I can sit here hearing how the birds sing,
    But you would not say a word at all to me.
    You would comfort me with your love,
    And the contrast of birds will no longer be.

    I can sit on the porch right next to you,
    And feel lightness around me in a moment.
    I would raise feeling this bliss and thinking,
    Words speak better when they are silent.
