Hiding In My Heart

Why does my heart call out for the very thing that paralyses it with fear?
Why does it pine for her when she is far, yet grow so fearful whenever she is near?

Is it enough to face the risk?
Is it enough to brave the unease?
Will her heart return this love mine gives so freely, will it ever be drawn to the light it sees.

Her presence is always in me, in the stillness deep feelings gravitate.
She follows me into my dreams & fills my mind each time I meditate.

Sometimes I feel so lifted, as if my soul toward the heavens could climb. But there are times I can feel so broken, like my soul has frozen in time.

It's a bitter war of opposing forces each trying to win the day. A fierce conflict between my hopes & my fears with neither side backing away.

I wonder if she even knows how special she really is & if she ever feels her heart persist? Or does she spend her days in peace barely knowing that I exist?

It's a question my mind will always wonder as my desires define it's path; & so I remain silent dreaming of her, with a love hiding deep in my heart.
