nothing i can do

this poem truly shows the emotion that is hidden inside of me begging and wearing away at me to rear its ugly face

Nothing I can do
not a word is spoken
only a tear sheds
let this tear be my action
don’t listen to my words
trying hard not to put my feelings in the way
I can’t look away
I can’t step back
but only hold my breath
until you come around
I wish I could scream out my feelings
tell you exactly how I feel
but just knowing I don’t deserve you
stops me from trying
but you will always be
the love of my life and nothing can change it

This reflects exactly how we all feel at times. How we hold our tongues and wish to say all sorts of things but never allow ourselves to do so.
