Speechless Love
Speechless love
She did not tell me she is in love, he said
Until he left her...for a lady that admires him
He did not admire her beauties in her presence, she said
If he had done that she would have accepted his offer, she said
Yet he is speechless but his heart speaks
She is in love with him in his absence
She could do anything at his absence
But so muted when she is in his presence
Now what is the essence?
Of their speechless love
He adores her beauty in her absence
And brags about her before his friends
But before her he is tongued-tie
Unable to utter his feelings for her
He is mixed about this feeling
And in her soul there is conflict
As she makes an attempt to speak
She face the panel before her friends
She never want them to know how much she is in love
Since they feel being in love with a guy
Without the guy first impression
Means she is a cheap
Now how'll she handle her emotion not to crumble?
Because she may fumble
How can she be humble?
Before him and could share those bubbles with him
She needs an answer...
Not from her friends
Since they'll label her a fool-for-love
He is out there hungry without appetite
What he only longs for is to see her face
And when he set his eyes on her
He is filled for the day
And just today...she is thinking about him
But so conformed to what people'll say
He is so devastated about his love for her
Who will help him...?
Since he can't trust any of his friends
This is not the first time his friend had betrayed him
Now down by a cross-road...he pondered what to do
Will she be approachable, he questioned
If she could listen to his heart cry, he feels
If she would come alone, he thought
If he can tell her, how he love her; he breathe
If he can touch her and kiss her, he reasoned
If he could be bold to gaze into his eyes, he pondered
She pondered, how she wish he would notice her
And he will walk up to her...and she will accept his offer
She fumes, oh why can't she walk up to him and share her feelings
With him...but so speechless to answer that...
He thinks he love her
She feels she admires him
And their friends are not helping matters
How will you help them to get over their feelings?
And reach out to each other
Few days later...
She accepted a guy who share his admiration for her
And he accepted a girl who shows her admiration for him
Yet they are still there gazing at each other...
As tears drip down their faces...just speechless
Without a word....just speechless
But their hearts speak
