My love left the other day
I was sad my love could not stay
I grimaced at the thought
I guess I should have fought
Words spinning around in my head
Those words I should have said
Please stay
Don’t go
I need you
I love you so
My pride was great
My pride was strong
My pride stifled my tongue
I think I was terribly wrong
Now I am devoid of reason
Why not voice my feelings
The fear of exploitation?
Maybe had I spoken my love
I would not feel the hurt I am facing
Love shouldn’t wound
Love should be healing
Love should fill in all the missing pieces
Instead of holding onto my words
I should release them
Shall I do so while displaying a splendid gesture?
When you are in my presence, I feel under pressure
Though I want to speak my heart to you
I am afraid I may lose you
Will I look like a fool to you?
Would you even believe me if I told you
I know…
I will write it down for you
I will not see your reaction
If I see you, again
I will know that it was to your satisfaction
You are beautiful
You make me weak
You shake me to my core
You lift me up with your words
When I touch you, I feel like I’m floating amongst the clouds
I shall not be ashamed of my feelings
I will exclaim them loud and proud
You are heaven on earth
When God created you, he took extra care
Whilst the angels sang a chorus
There is no physical entity to compare to your splendor
When I see you, I have to reflect before I speak
I cannot find the right words to say so I hold my breath
I feel faint
And when you leave the room I breathe
I miss you even though I know you will return
Even a few moments without you feel like an eternity
And I am dying inside wondering to myself
Does he love me?
Am I capable of being loved?
You are here in physical form
But is your mind elsewhere
I want you
Mind, body, and spirit
I don’t love just your outward appearance
I want to know you through and through
I want to caress your body as
I make love to your mind
While I breathe in your spirit
I don’t want just seconds, minutes, hours, or days with you.
You are too special to me for that
With you I want forever
I come back to my senses
Exhale
Color fills my face
I realize my mouth is open
I lose all courage
The words go unspoken
