Here is the dreamer. One who created and played with the pen and the keys of a world soon unmade. She remembers the wind, water, earth and flame. She loved even shadows but knew naught of hate. With a heart too soft and a strength unseen, she loved the world and she lived a dream.

Listen To Me

85. One of the things I find appealing in you is your readiness to listen to me. I find it very surprising since I've never had a person values my opinions as much as you. Even if I don't feel like talking to you, you're quite skilled at prying the locks of my brain open anyway. Somehow I find resisting you when you do that only leads to more problems involving trust. I know you care a lot that is why you'd like to know. My family upbringing is different from yours in that generally, we are quiet, pleasant people that avoid strong emotions. However, things can get suppressive when one feels that one does not have a say in things or just typically feel like there's no one to confide in the family. And my family values peace and quiet, thus we don't talk so much. Sometimes it's really nice to just have some peace but unfortunately, this has led to us sometimes becoming strangers to one another. I'd wager you'd never had such problems with your family because everyone's so talkative and open. I admit though, I am in no position to complain, for I've never been in want of anything my whole life. I know that I am loved and accepted, and that is what matters. Still, what I've found lacking in my own family, I've found an outlet in my relationship with you. You may be stubborn at times and talk about unnecessary things that cause a bit of an annoyance but you only mean well, and you're honest. And always ready to listen without hesitation.
