Why cannot I speak,
those words that I long to speak?
Why won't the love that I hold for you
pour out?
I cannot bring myself to say one
simple word to you.
You don't understand,
how hard it is for me,
to look at you and,
no words come out.
In the shadows I wait,
for you to make your move.
For I cannot step out and make it
known.
I love you are the words I so long to speak,
yet....
you are unaware.
You don't even know I exist.
I love you.
