Whispers in the WInd

It is my rants you remember, 
but the deeper truths are in the whispers, 
the soft words so tentatively spoken
late in the night, 
those words of fear and love, 
tender, secretly strong, 
unsure – the words
barely heard, or ignored
for their lack of force or bravado. 
whispered to the wind
and you alone. 

About this poem. 

What is intimacy? It is the safe place where we can be who we are without fear.
