Love is revealed in our silences

He holds her hand and looks right into her eyes. She says nothing, but he already knows what is bothering her. He says nothing but she already feels his love protecting her and it cheers her up. In moments like this, words have no place between them. Their silence talks straight to their hearts.

And they cherish this silence.

Most people don’t though. Especially when they are around others. Talkers tend to hide their true thoughts and feelings behind tons of useless words and vague conversations. Listeners rarely express themselves, but they pleasantly watch their companions’ discourses.

Whether talkers or listeners, people resort to words in order to communicate with each other. To understand others and share their own minds and feel less awkward and reclusive. They take part in conversations even when they do not feel like it. Because something must be said. And because the vast majority of human beings are uncomfortable when they do not have anything to say in the presence of other people. And feel ill at ease when silence drops among them.

But this is not the case when two people have really special feelings for one another. Then words become less essential between them. They become meaningless since two people in love don’t need to talk to understand each other. For them, silence is just another way of communication. A more sincere and powerful one, actually.

Their eyes can speak really loudly when their full of love gazes meet. Their warm bodies tangled together can say so much more than words could ever express. And every time two enamored people lie in each other’s arms they do not have to say a thing to read each other’s minds. Call it telepathy or a miracle of love, their hearts beating together interact in a magical, silent way.  And they say everything needed to be said.

After all, since words are not always strong enough to express the feelings that a couple in love have for each other; they even enjoy the silence between them when they are together. Because love resides in this silence. And grows even stronger in quietness.

Eventually, it seems that the more a couple communicates through silence, the deeper their emotions are. And there is a high chance that what binds them together is, in fact, wonderful and true.

Because finding beauty in one’s silence means that you know how to listen to his mind and heart. And because in the absence of words, souls deeply communicate. You see, silence is the soul’s voice and it can sometimes be much louder and more meaningful than any other voice.

Of course, no one doubts that talking can rather easily reach, and sweeten a person’s heart. But words are seldom capable of expressing all the love that someone hides in his heart for his special one. All those beautiful things that are hidden in there, desperately searching for a way out. Until they are communicated through silence. Just in peace and quiet.

So, if you really love someone you must learn to listen to the sound of his silences. And interpret its meaning. You must learn to enjoy and appreciate his quiet moments. After all, love can always teach you how to communicate with him without using a single word. And remember. If you like sharing the silence with some person, then hold on tight to him. Because he might be your soulmate.

Because only true lovers communicate with their mouths shut and their hearts wide open.
