If You Only Knew

Questions must be asked but I can't 
ask you
For your answers are feared and I 
might sound foolish to you
They'd rather be kept in my mind 
and don't let you know


If you only know how much I need 
to see you
If you only know how much I miss 
you
If you only know how I dream of 
you
If you only know what you really 
mean to me


You were never been out of my 
mind
Though I was not in yours
Heartacges are not your intention
I surely know

Last night, I cried my hyeart out
Because I thought of you
Of course you don't know 
But, I wished you knew

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Enjoyed this read.. not because it was uplifting, but because it was such a true reflection on an honest perspective of true love lost. Keep writing.xx

Better left said than unsaid. Life doesn't allow much wiggle room for the "what ifs". Great expression here!
