"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson


How long must this continue?

Playing this silly charade?

Marching through this venue,

Unaware of feelings at stake

Blind to each other's hearts,

While standing face to face, 

Now feels like miles apart,

Yet never a memory erased

Can I cross this endless chasm?

Just to once reveal? 

Can my heart be my own ransom?

To show you how I feel? 

Do I have to yet keep hiding?

Veiled by my emotions? 

Could I better be confiding,

With move of a new notion?

Sending wishes on a star, 

A hope lost in the silence. 

A longing drifted far, 

In my emotional violence. 

Dreams ashore my reckless thoughts, 

Floating through an endless sea,

Memories flooding past in lots 

As I remember you and me

I wonder and imagine silently

Everything we could possibly be


The author's comments:

I wrote this with someone in mind that I have feelings for, but I feel like I can't say anything. I've chosen to give it to God, and let him show me. I have thoughts that maybe this is the person he's leading me to, but for now, I can only wait and see.
