Let's talk

We have to trust,

nothing starts with suspicion, 

give others some chance,

to present their opinions. 

Not all have the disposition, 

to be open about their feelings,

it takes a lot of courage to commence,

the path of the communications. 


We can doubt their intentions, 

things become clearer in conversations, 

helping us build our positions,

to be shared for their clarifications. 

We might be cautious,

of their unyielding persistence, 

to avoid falling in situations, 

that would feel like an obligation. 


Yet, these are mere speculations, 

an excuse of preventing confrontations,

thus, we give the silent treatment,

as a sign of implying indifference. 

And it dissuades their approach,

might even disappoint their heart,

and they would be discouraged,

to build up the courage again. 


So, let's be generous and open,

trust the goodness of people,

as we listen to their reasons,

deliberate before giving answers. 


After all...

Only when we talk,

We will know a person.
