Nevermore

Nevermore

A Poem by Jeff Miller

My lips tremble and my Adam's apple quivers 
My heart beats faster and faster like an African drum 
My blood rises, you can feel the miniscule inferno, almost simulating a fever 
I have so many words to tell you so the following is only some 
I keep denying the truth 
And the truth is I'm in love with you 
I haven't told you for fear 
Fear that you, my beauty, would gallop away 
But I am changing my path 
Anything you want to know I will share 
Nevermore will anything be hid 
Nevermore will this Raven only come at night 
I shall be visible all day every day 
And no longer will the silence be tangible, no longer will I deal with this plight 
So I give credit to where it is due 
I must tell you...I am in love with you!

Simply beautiful! All I can say, if I had a "friend-of-the-male-sex" who could dare to give me a poem like this, I'd be wonderfully surprised.
I did think the phrasing in this line, "I have so many words to tell you so the following is only some" was a little awkward, so there's constructive...
I really like the "Raven" analogy.
