Languages

We may have failed,
never because we didn't love ,
But 'cause we failed to communicate,
the right languages of love,

While one yearn for a time spent together,
the other sends gifts in his absence,
and he thought she felt loved,
he thought it's all enough,

and then some yearn for words full of love and softness,
she was there being tough on him,
teaching him things, helping him grow,
and she thought he felt loved,

and then they part saying one was never loved,
not realizing, 
yes they spoke love,
all those time they acted out of love,

but they failed to communicate love,
not in the same launguage the other would feel loved,
They failed to fill,
"When do you feel most loved?"
