Array ( [sid] => 109213 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Silence [time] => 2005-11-06 23:01:42 [hometext] => I love you so much! I wish I could tell you! I try to show you and I think you know. But have you accepted it? [bodytext] => There is a thing that you know
Of which we don’t speak
When strain starts to show
My silence I keep

I wish I could say
What it is that I feel
But this game I must play
Or my fate I could seal

Which scares you more
Its existence or lack?
What’s at the heart’s core,
Needs be mirrored back

For the day, I still hope
When the curtain shall fall
When you’ll choose not to mope
But return my heart’s call

I miss so much
The times when we’re close
Without your soul’s touch
I feel sullen, morose

Each day is a struggle
To see good beyond you
It is well worth the trouble
And keeps me from blue

My blessings have been great
And I keep them in mind
I must weather the wait
For your heart to unbind

A fool’s play it may be
But it’s a risk I must take
For your heart, I must query
Or mine, I’ll forsake
