in the quiet of hearts by Emily G Myersin the quiet of my heart
I purposed to love you
and made you my sole desire
I prayed that it wouldn't end
devoting every written word to you
I called out and you answered
but in the quiet of your heart
you never decided to love me
and if you desired me I didn't see
I'll bet you never talked to God about us
and when the time come for you to devote words to me
I got cheated
and yet
when I called to you
you answered
leading me
taking my hand
showing me beauty
and then leaving me
cold
alone
waiting
waiting for something that would never come
and there
in the quiet of my heart
I stopped calling
stopped waiting
and embraced the cold 08/08/2002 Posted on 08/08/2002 Copyright © 2025 Emily G Myers
