Anything but Ordinary

you took the time to listen when I needed it
you set aside whatever you were doing for me
you not only heard me- you actually listened
and in the right moment you talked

you sent me a text message
it was simple and on an ordinary day
what you didn't know is that I needed that
It was anything but ordinary

you stopped me in the busy hall
you looked me in the eye and spoke
you opened up your heart and began to pour it into mine
and I couldn't help but be filled

you smiled at me with your eyes
you didn't say a word but you didn't need to
I heard everything you wanted to say
thank you for your kindness

you were talking and talking but not really saying anything
and it was when you stopped that I began to hear
all the words your heart was saying to me
and the silence was beautiful and enough
