Feelings Unsaid

In this silent room I chase

            those little daydreams in my head

With the dark musty breeze

            I hear voices say your name

Pushing me to speak

            and burst these feelings within

But I’m no beauty of Aphrodite

            nor a  Venus in such disguise

So in the shadows I lay my love

            and let it stay in silent  secrecy

From dawn till dusk

            I keep these feelings all unsaid

Bury them deep inside

            like a hidden treasure in my chest

Under the moonlight I gaze

            and search for my lucky star

In my shell I sigh and unlit

            the memories of my horrid self  

These crumpled pieces of love

            I pick them rigidly in the dark

And as the candle burns

            light is shrinking in my eyes

My valor’s dwindling down

            having me startled and petrified

Here on my bended knees

            I sing this sweet adoration

To tie these invisible strings of love

            to my one and only Adonis dear

You have expressed your love vividly.
These lines captivate my heart and hope your Adonis will feel your heart too.
