Silently Within

A year gone, Started very bright with hot passion But now dim and cold in old fashion Could have sworn on its eternity But doubted your love Its depth I never knew Though I felt it Never to toil with your heart But I did, Sorry Feigning affection to love This refused to grow My thoughts of kindness Shadowed a lurking opportunist Who said Love with no Love But I did, so it is over I can say it, but not in your face I can write it, but cannot read to you Silently it dwells within. ©Kofi Asokwa-Nkansah
