Heard It with My Eyes

You took the stress out of her travel, she said

30 hours from India

You reached for her hand

Held her thumb

Smiled

You don’t have recognizable words

You gave her all you could without even knowing it

Innocently, she said

She brushed the hair off your face

You didn’t flinch

You let her

You welcomed her, unaware, to your world

Showing her the kingdom of Heaven that only ones like you can
