Secretly Longing
Poems of love
Fall dumbly from the pen
And flatly
To the page.
And I still love you.
I just keep trying
To find the right way
To say it.
How to wrap my tongue
Around the words -
I can’t stop loving.
You’re so confusing
You suck all the words
Into the vortex of your eyes
Just by
Looking right past me.
How I love you.
You
Trap those words
And devour them.
I can’t say a thing.
But I love you.
