Its not my attitude
that I keep quite
when you shout

Its not my weakness
to remain silent
when you show anger

I am not ignoring you
I am listening to the every
word u unknowingly utter

That tone of voice is what
am afraid of  and
Sometimes it hurts to hear

But I am still silent
not because I don't have words
not because I am wrong

But I am afraid of the words
I might speak which
May not sound right

I fear if I speak like you
You might get hurt like me
And I won't do that

So I let u speak
I am letting you take time
To cool down and relax

When you become neutral
I'll try to explain and
Make u understand

In silence with patience
I wait for u  to
Together come out this

With out being afraid
To hurt.
