Wordless Love
I love you deeply—
but my mouth stays dumb;
within me, the words burn,
waiting—too shy to burst out.
I guess you’ve seen it in my eyes;
that’s why I threw away my glasses,
for you to glimpse love as it cries,
with tears of joy and affection.
How do I force the words to flow,
to let you know your love streams—
like gentle waves across my veins,
calm, cool, and peaceful?
Each day, the pain grows fainter,
though your love tortures me within;
my tongue still fails to confess—
so read my thoughts, and free me.
