His Silent Love

He didn't always know what to do 
Just trying was difficult 
But he knew that he loved her 
And that he wanted her in his life
He just could never find the words 
So he stays his distance from her 
Silently knowing he has loved her 
And he always will

Dear Lord, how sad that his love stayed silent in the suffering of not being able to bridge the emotional chasm between himself and his beloved. A moving piece. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
