I hear you've been eavesdropping
on me, but, have you been listening
to my words
do you count the
syllables of my thoughts
do you hear me softly
whispering my intentions
into the night
is the message of my
heart audible to your
ears

eavesdropping
I hear this plea as listening deeply to your heart. Lovely one Truedessa.
ReplyDeleteNice on Truedessa
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday
Much💝love
Oh, if only we could ALL hear each other's heart messages clearly; at least we'd all have some truth upon which to nail our adoration or our disavowal. Sadly propaganda and personal subterfuge rule.
ReplyDeleteBrava!
ReplyDeleteVery nice poem... seems the heart is the hardest to eavesdrop on... that is why we write our poetry! Well done.

The intention is everything, oft missed when eavesdropping. So true True... :)
ReplyDeleteI love this, especially the closing lines.

Interestingly enough eavesdropping may not reveal the actual situation as they might lead one off the track with assumptions.

I love this, Truedessa, especially ‘do you count the / syllables of my thoughts’ and 'message of my heart' - poems!
ReplyDeleteHearing and listening are two different things...
ReplyDeleteAh....you've pointed out so well the difference between hearing a listening. We listen from the heart, hopefully. We simply hear "noise".
ReplyDeleteThere is a great deal of poignancy in this. The listening vs. hearing, and the intentions of the one doing it make all the difference. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWords often do not convey the message of the heart. They go along with the mask we often wear. Evocative poem!
ReplyDeleteListening is so much harder than just hearing the words... I don't think you can eavesdrop since true listening requires two-way communication.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely stunning in its rendition, Truedessa 💝
ReplyDelete'I hear you've been eavesdropping on me, but, have you been listening
ReplyDeleteto my words' I love that.
Truly listening is sure a whole other ballgame
