Mute
Love and secrets
Yearnings bottled up
Desires tangled
In thoughts in deliberations
Mute,
A voiceless heart
The fear unrelenting
Crushing my heart
My soul
Battering my confidence,
My resolve
Rendering me impotent,
Neutered
Mute
I can only be
Simmering deep inside
A love unproclaimed
Longing to burst forth,
Blosom.
Emotions seething
Raring to overflow,
A torrent.
Mute
I remain voiceless.
The anxiety, abounds
A thousand questions,
Unanswerable
Overloading my heart
A flood
The insecurities, petrifying
My tongue inanimate
Mute
I can only be
The emotion uncontainable
The desire, the yearning
Hammering at my heart,
Siege.
Sweeping all away
The doubts, anxiety.
Cleansing, Exorcising
But, Mute
Can I remain?
