Listen to my silence (with Reading)
I love you above and below...
Where the wind touches the hair,
Where the gaze wanders among the stars,
And the thought touches the moon...
I love you above and below...
Where the grass crumpled at your feet,
And your footprint has kept in the sand,
Blossoming flower in the meadow...
I love your middle...
Where the heart flutters with fire,
Where love flows in a stream,
Spraying the darkness to atoms...
I love you above and below...
Where the whole world is at your eyelashes
So obediently bowed down,
Fitting in my palm...
I love you, I just love you...
Entirely, to the very dreams...
I probably won't have enough words,
Just listen to my silence...
Where the wind touches the hair,
Where the gaze wanders among the stars,
And the thought touches the moon...
I love you above and below...
Where the grass crumpled at your feet,
And your footprint has kept in the sand,
Blossoming flower in the meadow...
I love your middle...
Where the heart flutters with fire,
Where love flows in a stream,
Spraying the darkness to atoms...
I love you above and below...
Where the whole world is at your eyelashes
So obediently bowed down,
Fitting in my palm...
I love you, I just love you...
Entirely, to the very dreams...
I probably won't have enough words,
Just listen to my silence...

I'm glad you don't have a squeaky voice
That would ruin a beautiful reading
Perfect timing and phrasing on the last 2 lines
Solemn, gentle and lovely

Maybe I will try to squeak more next time, it's been at least a day since I ruined something. Without a doubt one of the best reading comments. lol
You sure know how to shut me up. (but only for a minute and no crass comments I know what you are thinking) Can I say you are lovely too? I know you have a reputation to uphold 💖 XOXO

KX, this beautiful descriptive poem of true love is delivered brilliantly in written word and felt passionately through your tone. Listening to your words speak from your heart portrays love in perfect poetic harmony . Lucky guy must feel the earth move beneath him to live in your poetic bliss.....BEAUTIFUL!!!!

'Felt passionately through your tone' and 'perfect poetic harmony', is everyone trying to shut me up today by tugging at my heart strings. And that last line is the most beautiful of all. Thank you so much! Now I need to do the follow-on poem, about what comes after silence. Just a thought. lol 💖 XOXO

Bitches worry too, don't be - what would racist against bitches be? Whatever. I will have you know that if you did not comment, even to say it sucks I would have been so devastated, destroyed, buried my head in the sand and never done another reading. I thought if I get only one comment it better be Missy. So thank you for coming through in my time of need to say something about my amateur reading.
You gave me a voice to put to the name so it was only fair I give you one back. British have manners sometimes. And your welcome. Kx

... so no pressure then... 😂
I don’t claim to be an expert or owt, but it’s just an area I’m really passionate about and put a lot of personal energy into. So I always appreciate it when people raise their own game and try out spoken word. It’s not easy at all. But it’s worth it. And you answered the call, so mad props to you.
It was fab. Be proud.
Yeah I do have manners. Only sometimes tho. 😋

Dearest Kristina❣❣ this is a beautifully writen and read, powerfully romantic piece. Your love is all dncompassing. It is hard to fathom such universal, divine love. To me, structure aside, reads like a Shakespean sonnet. Bravissima, BD😘

Powerfully romantic and all encompassing, that's me. ;) Thanks GW, as usual a thoughtful and beautiful comment that shows off your big heart. I really love that you feel it reads like a Shakespearean sonnet. I definitely take that as a huge compliment for this short spill. 💖XOXO (giving you some universal divine love, structure aside)

It always means so much to me when someone feels enough to comment but to read and comment again makes me feel amazing especially on a reading as there is always vulnerability in posting these. hugs and kisses.

My eyes, ears, and heart, wait for more of your sensual words. Hugs and kisses, oral
P.S. If this kind of poem means being vulnerable, please keep being vulnerable.

Damn, this is absolutely beautiful ❤️! I find it is so hard to write about true love in a genuine, straight from the heart way. I don't know why. I sure wish I could have written this though.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comment Margo. I am so happy you stopped in to read and listen. I have to be in the right mindset for sure, sometimes I write really dark stuff - although much is not posted. You really know how to finish off a comment, that final sentence means so much to me. 💖XOXO

Dear K,
There is an absolute in loving someone to this degree that I can only hope the recipient is aware of. There is an offering by that someone who can love so freely. It’s a level to which I could only aspire. As I read this poem of love and beauty I kept thinking I could love someone above and below but only if...the unconditional rings throughout this piece and as I lament my inability to love in this capacity I admire it enormously in you. Listening to you bring life to these words was divine. H🌷

Re: Re. Listen to my silence (with Reading)
It can be very difficult to love deeply today; there are so many distractions, temptations, and discord. Getting past our own scars and theirs can be truly challenging. Still I think we should aspire to it because the more we can love someone and open up, the more beautiful it can be. I think we have all learned those protective defense mechanisms which will always make it difficult unfortunately. As always, thank you for taking the time to provide your insight and thoughts. I appreciate it so much. 💖XOXO

Loved the sincere expression coming through, both in written and presentation. Sometimes that silence captures, almost as if the heart is speaking out lout and you both know it.
Excellent work Kristina.

The silence allows us to truly immerse in that look in the eyes, breath on the lips, and that inner peace and true connection without the need for spoken words. It is beautiful and so often is the prelude to other much more enjoyable pleasurable acts. Thank you so much for the comment and feedback, Wally. I always treasure hearing your thoughts. 💖XOXO
