Silently Suffering
by John D UzzellWalking in the world, waiting for the next try
I see what happens through an untrained eye
I wait for my chance to reach in and hold
Am I to be so bold?
To expect you to reach back
To understand my thought
For you to know what I have felt
For you to feel what I have sought
For the years I have been looking
For the time I have lost
None of it has been a waste
But it has come at a cost
I’ve paid with my heart
Allowing it to reach away
Somehow I must pull it back in
It’s getting harder everyday
Something has got to give.
I don’t know about this one.
Too much time I think has passed.
I wonder if it is done.

Well done! |
