EMOTIONS UNSPOKEN


Struggling for the words to form

Opening the lock to the cage

Feeling the flush of emotions storm

The sudden desire to explore the sage

People will come

Others may go

I might wonder

And never really know

I can't live with the unknown

The intrigue is deep and growing

I must find the answers on my own

The smiles are showing

The excitement begins to soar

I spread my wings and take flight

No longer seeking any more

I have seen the beauty of the insight

The trust towards you begins to grow

I realize that you are the friend

I crave to know

Wanting the love your heart does send.

You touched my soul

And I touched your light

I need this to feel whole

It is worth the fight.

It started with words spoken

That had so much rage

I began to read the emotions

That were written on the page.

The intimacy I can see

The darkness reaches into the night

The closeness that needs to be

I must be careful not to bite.

 The burning touch

Makes the ache a true pleasure

It can never be too much

For this I will forever treasure.
