Mental turmoil rolls languidly
through the process of my mind,
for emotions I can't fight
that in my dreams I find.
I've battled with myself
to keep these thoughts at bay,
but find you linger in my sight
and I want it no other way.
Your truth may be of difference
and these feelings all my own,
but I can't stop this temptation
that in my veins, my love has grown.
My heart beats within me
because inside, love exists.
These emotions that I've battled,
but the feeling still persists.
I may not ever know
if it's a shared feeling too,
but deep inside my soul
I know my love is true.
They say it's better to have lost at love
than to never have loved at all...
but he who made that statement
held a heart that was too small.
For those of us filled to the brim
with a love we cannot hide,
have shed the tears they won't see;
have held it deep inside.
If true love does not exist
than we know it won't be found;
but I can't hide what's in my soul
as I lay my heart upon the ground.

True love cannot be found where it truly does not exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does.

Oh Storm you have written a mouthful here. It is so hard to have such deep emotion for someone, and try to hide it since their feelings aren't obvious either. Sometimes I think that maybe they fight the same emotions for the same reason. What a waste of time. Maybe it is better to test the waters, then we'd know. Oh well, such is life and love... Great write. Good luck in the contest.
