Binding Love

silence stills my heart,
i cannot find the words to say,
in my heart they are kept,
within my soul they stay,
disagreeing crowds,
walk my boundary lines,
so not a word is spoken,
reasons witheld and confined,
their perspective is their wisdom,
their rightness is my wrong,
but what they cannot understand,
in forgiveness pain is gone,
my lord is my protector,
he is who i must face in the end,
so every feeling faced head on,
in his sight, i won't pretend,
it is more painful to face the truth,
but in this face i acknowledge love and kindness,
and with this truth our hearts connect, a love so solid it binds us.
