Words of My Heart




They say that love is painful,
And though I wish it were untrue,
The hardest part of love is
I'm still in love with you.

I gave up on what had been,
We figured it was gone.
Yet somewhere in this clouded mist,
We seem to have been wrong.

Both our lives have changed,
Our feelings have changed too.
A lot of things are different,
But this love is not new.

So where to go from here?
What action do we take?
I'm afraid of everything,
For fear my heart will break.

Perhaps things would be better,
Had this all gone unsaid.
But yet we showed our hearts,
Felt things we thought were dead.

I really expect nothing,
Please don't think I do.
And in this just remember,
I'm as confused as you.

I couldn't thinf of words
To tell you how I feel.
I don't know what the truth is,
Or even what is real.

One thing I know,however,
Is what I feel for you.
I couldn't think of words, so 
This poem will have to do.
