Analysis of In Your Silence

In Your Silence

In your silence I adore you
With my eyes you can feel my heart
And all its secrets and affections
Paint in quiet vibrant colors
The moment your presence
Strikes a lightning bolt within me
Your body rushes my blood inside
Right where you are becomes
My home of meaning and living
You are the pulsating path
Alight with laughter
Awash in your gaze and smile.

In your silence I come alive
Around you my body and mind
Awaken with your attention
And everything you say
Creates beautiful music
Because it’s all you
Your thoughts and feelings
Flowing through me
Expanding my aperture
And deepening my capacity
To care about you
Breathing who you are.

Is it any wonder at all I love
How the thought of you
Inspires passion and excitement
In my mundane existence
To bend where I am still
To lend a hand where help
Requires kind action
Or listening a gentle audience?
Yes, it’s all because of you
The way you create
Nouvelle raison de vivre
Mon cher Je t'aime!
