Click hereCowering in the shadows
afraid to face the truth
that's standing in the way
So I can't follow through.
I open my heart.
I hide within the lies I've told
to friend, to love, to death.
I shiver in the black of night
I shiver from lack of someone to hold me.
Let me cry in your arms.
Teardrops in the morning, fall
from a head held High and proud.
In daylight I will hide my heart,
At night I show it, finally strong
I desire your touch.
Tell me love how long it takes,
to tell me how you feel?
I'd give you til the end of time,
far after, I am sure.
your passion's uplifting
Please tell me soon
My love so true
Don't let me fall
from love with you.
I need you so much.
...and you made the 4-1-4 layout work well. I like this line...
"I hide within the lies I've told"
Very strong emotions ripple through this poem.. I felt so alone, so needing to be loved.. and unvieled fear.. nice work
