Hearing my Voice

Excuse me for the letter

But what I need to get across conveys a deeper effect

It intrudes every part of my day

When I awake and stay up every night

When I can’t fall asleep, and all I do is think of you

 

These words and thoughts run on for minutes, hours and days

And from this moment on I pray you choose to listen

to my voice as I continue to type

Wanting to know why I look the other way when you decide

to come around

 

Hold on a minute or two as I take a deep breath

And plunge head first into your open heart

The one you carry carelessly and on your sleeve

So easy for me to set free and make you belong to me

 

Run to me with open arms

I beg you to let me in, like the girls you’ve let in before

I don’t ask for pity and lament, just for your sincerity

I may be ashamed to see your face again after you listen

in on my feelings for you

 

I’ve known you for years

But up until now I choose to share what i think

How I can find your face as soon as I hear to your voice

And how your laugh brings a smile to my own face

 

But up until now I never told you

And now I feel it is right

But at the close of this letter I leave my thoughts running

Because I know you’ll never read it

You will not recieve this

 

Maybe this is a close for me today, but tomorrow

I’m telling you a different way

My voice will be heard out loud

And I won’t turn when you come around

Because as of now, I’m over your egocentricity

Amazing poem :-)

[Fabian G. Franklin]

I'm sorry to be so egocentric but it's just that I'm so darn good. lol Well, this writing certainly made long for young love and all its complications, mysteries and conquests. I think you have a fine writing style and I enjoyed reading this. I look forward to reading more from you.
