I Am Not Blind, I Just Cannot Speak

I am not blind; I just cannot speak The looks, the touch, impress me much The kisses, the thoughtfulness are as such That my heart, it seems, becomes weak I am not blind, I just cannot speak The tears, they drop like rain from the sky The pain, it shows through his eyes But his heart does not allow for it to leak I am not blind, I just cannot speak Gestures… it seems come natural Anger and Frustration…not at all Interest and Intrigue, week after week I am not blind, I just cannot speak Laughter and smiles seem never ending A future of Happiness is certainly pending The pleasures of Love seem no longer bleak I am not blind, I just cannot speak -Nicole J. Jones
