A Silent Song Begs To Be Heard

romance of the silent soul

                   "A Silent Song Begs To Be Heard"

Hear my silence.
Listen to my stillness.
Standing in the shadows of an alcove
sipping splendid sweetness from your lips,
feeling your hands finding my hips.
Yet, I feel alone.
Loneliness nestled in the intimate chamber of my mind
afraid to speak and reveal
a quivering soul tucked away for safekeeping.
My heart's song, a sigh.
Within this silent singing, your love's longing
seems so far away, and mine lingering nearer.
Know my truth trembling and weeping.
Hear my silence.
Gift me love's assurance.
