Hidden feelings

I watch you from afar, my heart beats oh so fast
But I can’t find the courage, will my feelings will last?
Every time you smile, my world lights up so bright 
You are the beam of sunshine on the darkest night
I want  to tell you how i feel,  but the words they just get stuck, i get a lump  ,in my throat, I just cant speak up
These feelings inside, I keep locked away ,hoping the day will come, that I can tell you how I feel and I know you are one
Im Secretly in love with you, but you’ll never know
It’s a bittersweet symphony, this is the hidden show
My heart sings your name, in whispers oh so soft
But the truth remains untold, a desire that maybe lost,
I write you letters everyday, that I’ll never send
Pour my heart out, in these words , my love I will defend
In my dreams, you’re always by my side,a happiness oh so true
But in realty, my feelings I hide,In the silence of a love for you

Sometimes it takes a lot of courage to share your feelings, and if you don’t, you spend the rest of your life wondering what might have been. Nicely written, Rachael, welcome to Poetry Soup. John

Feedback appreciated first time posting. Write for fun off top of my head .usually at early hours of morning.. never thought I would share these but here i am on bigger platform. sharing with complete strangers so this is a huge step as i have only ever shared with couple close friends and family so this is a big step as never thought it was good enough ECV
