A note I kept about me, for you

I hid my heart in stillness
Because it runs to you easily.
I denied almost every glance
Because my courage was never enough.
What should I do?
Because I never learned to love you out loud!

Stillness of love is no illness, it is a fullness that feeds the mouth of your honest hope, You are beautiful because you breathe with open nerves in the morning of longing, and when dusk dances towards you, you dare to desire, you are a voice of touch, loud in love...J.A.B.
