Words unspoken, yet they are there.
Secrets shared, but yet kept silent.
Whispers on my lips just unheard.
I watch, Knowing I can't have, I long wanting his love,
yet not knowing how to let him know....
So I keep the words unspoken.
When he looks into my eyes, the words are there yet unseen.
I could simply say them, but yet I keep them inside
where they can cause no pain.
When he touches me, it takes everything with in my soul
to keep the words silent.
So I take what I have and love from afar.
Cherishing his every touch, kiss and glance.
Making love to him with every breath I take, keeping
the words locked safely away in my eyes.
Still hoping to look into his eyes one day and see the
same unspoken words, then he will know my love and I his.
