We never spoke

I won't say city life is boring
the noise never bothered me much.
When people around were busy with their phone
we kept ourself on mute.
Having our beloved along was enough
yelling traffic horns failed to irritate.

When there is a hand to hold when happy,
harder when hurt,
to pull closer when loneliness scares,
there is nothing which your words could help express.
Our phones kept ringing, we never cared.
Messages kept coming, we never read.

We kept walking leaving the crowd alone
along the beaches that touched the shore
silently;
and we never spoke.

We are what the world calls dumb.
Never busy with our cell phones
who would just listen and never speak.
We could hear the wind above the wave that bounces,
sing the symphony of deep blue sea troll;
live in the world you too belong
singing the songs that we alone know
as we never spoke.

We are the world calls dumb indeed, a term applied to that which is generally unknown to the one using the term. Perhaps we are simply of a different strand, I believe so; that we simply advance too quickly for the world to catch up and the world instead cries, "hold up!" instead of running more quickly, as we proceed to revel in our new discoveries and share the weight of bliss among ourselves . . . Well done indeed, so very many imaginative lines here and I enjoyed every one.
