So I Say

Words spoken barely a whisper.
Words that weigh heavy on my tongue.
Words with such depth as to frighten me.

Words I long to speak.

Fear causes my hesitation.

Keeps me from speaking.

Keeps me from telling you.

Telling you I care so much.

Words that burn my lips.

Words that fight to escape.

Catch me before I say them.

Keep me from such thoughts.

Do you fight such words my dear?

Do you catch yourself too?

Do you long to share as I do?

Will you share these words with me?

I do not know.

I will wait for you to speak.

I will hold them back.

So I say

Nothing

A contest entry

Do you fight not to say, "I love you."

    a very intense write. I like the emotion in this piece, the things written here ... I can kind of relate to them even though I don't really believe in love. Thank you for sharing this, and taking the time to enter my contest,

    Luck.
