My Heart's Plea

The words my heart says, Yet my mouth refuses to repeat Are as contant as the days That I determine not to speak As I hide the words I need to imply I cannot bring myself to tell you That you mean so much to me Yet I know that you already know I stop each tender word from my lips I refuse to utter my heart's plea With each touch from your fingertips I wonder how much you love me My soul begs to let it all go Yet I must let my guard down To let all my feelings flow Even though I feel I will drown My heart's cry to tell you Is taken over by my pride So I cannot convey and be true As true as the coming tide I drown my heart's plea with tears Swearing never to tell you Even though it sheers And rips my heart in two...
