I love talking to you, even if i have nothing to say.




i love talking to you, even if i have nothing to say.

it’s the little things, you know? how i can just sit down next to you and have hours pass by without a word.
and yet when i finally get up to leave i’ll feel so much lighter like a weight was lifted off of my chest. like all i needed was your presence.

just having you around makes me feel better, makes my mind feel stronger, and calms the furious voices inside of me.

and i have no idea how you do it. how you make everything okay. how even in silence you are listening to me.
how you know that sometimes people don’t need loud company. just someone who would make them feel like they are not alone.

you’re someone who would make them feel warm, like a cup of hot chocolate that calms your nerves. like soothing music in your ears.

it’s so simple with you. come. sit. speak. be heard. feel better.
and when i need to let something off of my chest, but i have no way of explaining how i’m feeling, with you words will just flow out of me,
like there were no filter no off button. when i’m with you, my innermost secrets come undone.

i can lay my heart bare and i know i can do this because of how carefully you look at me while i’m speaking, how you will take in everything i’m saying,
how you’re listening, actually listening to me without judgement, even though i’m sure a lot of times i’m wrong.

you make being around you so easy, talking to you or not talking to you so easy that when i’m around you my mind is finally at peace, and maybe that’s all i need.
