More Than Words
Wound tight
a cannon ready to ignite
wedged by words
hoping every one's just right
trapped and tongue-tied
but these feelings never lie
solitude by societal ineptitude
insides reside deep and hide
too shy to try
I shall cover up and cry
shielded from shadows of the moon
but sweet whispers stream
out of a thankful soul
sending smiles straight
to a nervous heart
and actions to part
good morning hellos
give a peek past
an open door
outstretched arms
protect a paradise of
paths not yet taken
words may lie
when actions subside
but the true meaning
of love
remains hushed
hidden from those who speak
it freely
listen closely
for wedged behind
these simple words
my love for you
is heard
a cannon ready to ignite
