Needs of a Heart

unable to speak 
gagged without a clothe
seeing with a fear i cannot talk about
so many eyes on me 
oh, why can they not look away
oh why can they not listen

I need to talk to the one i love but i cant
I need to feel his touch that was so near
But now so far out of reach
I need to hear his voice 
but lately i  haven't a chance

ONLY in my dreams 
can we talk touch and dance 
only in my dreams can i feel that special touch 

oh well these are just the needs of a heart
