One more sleepless night

the things a mind can come up with in the AM.

4:30A.M. still no sleep,
My mind will not let go of you
If only I could bring myself
To tell you how much I hold inside
My heart.

But the fear of you telling me
You don’t feel the same keeps
My words within my crying
Heart never to be known
To your ears heart, and soul

I long to hold you in my arms,
Watch you sleep so sound
Your lips I wish to caress
With my fingertips,
So soft to the touch

Words I could whisper to
You would never come close
To how I feel about you,
But if only I could say
Three words to you
The words could only be
I love you
