Grasping For Words
#SilentConfessions
I've been hoping
the unsaid would pour,
each thought & syllable
tucked in the unknown.
Grasping for every word
stitched within my lungs,
Every needed expression
revealed in certain songs.
I'm desperate
to unhide the intensity,
the reason why
you mean so much to me,
This vulnerability
prone to melting me,
undressing all the fragrance
of said things,
these surface level
declarations.
I've noticed in your eyes
you've written a beautiful speech,
Holding in the butterflies fluttering,
Hinting you want to be mine.
I would be lying
if I said it wasn't terrifying.
Knowing I'd finally be right,
to open my mind & soul
to such a being.
Though my heart
hoard intimate words for you,
tailored divinely for your ears alone,
sadly I'd die
with my silent confession.
