Unspoken Words
Here I am
standing now 
in front of my
wall, leaning 
on the sturdy 
stone hoping 
for support,
but not balance.
I'm not hiding,
or cowaring like
I've grow accustom 
to. I'm ready to 
let you in on one
little secret, 
just one that's 
been stuffed behind 
all the other baggage
that's piled up behind 
my wall. Ok...here it
goes...I love you.
Ok, I said it, that 
wasn't so bad. However,
there's only one catch 
to this secret...
you can't tell anyone.  
You can't even speak 
of it with me, because
I'm still hoping I'm not.
In fact this is one
of those secrets you
hide behind your wall.
YES! That's a good idea
stuff it behind all your
baggage that's piled high 
behind your wall, and someday 
when you're cleaning
up back there 
you'll find it...
and you'll remember why you
forgot it in the first place.
Because I could never 
say it to you, and
you would never 
think it in the first
place. So just
ignore my constant
rambling and continue 
on like I never 
ventured out beyond 
my saftey net aka...
my wall, like nothing
was ever said and
unspoken words were
left as they should
be...unspoken.
