Vol V: Fluent

Fluent

Everyone wants to know what’s valued inside,
Contents revealed releases a heart’s prize,
Like a book that stands for all the world to see,
There is only one that can completely read,
Others make attempts but can’t understand,
Eventually give up because of time’s great demand,
Some notice it's familiar to others they’ve seen,
Translate few passages intrigued to gleam,
But later give up reaching for the door,
Unable able to fully grasp deeper levels in store,
For the one in whom it was intended,
Has gone through pain and knows how to mend it,
Brings clear skies to what’s seen rain,
And words of life when all have gone away,
Hands designed to comfort and strengthen when weak,
Acts of compassion that are thoughtful and sweet,
Give feelings of a world being beneath your feet,
Knowing how to receive as much as to give,
Realizing when it’s true and not on a whim,
One who’s found this book with no sort of ease,
But by using their heart, to only believe,
For others attempted but nearly cause ruin,
But you’ve found your counterpart, because you’re also fluent,
And when reading yours, the language is the same,
Because knowing in the heart is where true love came.
