The Little Things

By Amira Wells

What’s more romantic than being understood?

Someone there, able to reach into the depths of your soul.

To parts that are often hidden from the rest of the world.

The relief of not having to explain.

The closer I feel.

The deeper the bond.

By the looks I give.

Taking in my body language, each word at a time.

Attentive to the rhythms and the tones.

Situations I perceive as problematic arise.

I’m now considered; the initiative is taken, and I’m now brought into another world.

Giving me prayer and bringing me back to life.

Back to reality.

Allowing me to soon settle in your arms.

What’s more romantic than being understood?
