How Can I Tell You?
I flounder whenever I orchestrate the musical harmony’s
with solely my tone-deaf voice
Yearning to generate a small fraction of the song
my soul sings if I see your picture
I cannot express the shear depths of my feelings
when I try to talk of emotive senses
Longing to tell you how just the mention of your name
can make my heart pound faster
I am unable to draw the tenacious spirals and swirls of my passion
with only pieces of solid chalk
Aching to show you the effects that are induced
whenever my thoughts are of you
I fail to mark the canvass with any meaningful creation
by just using a rainbow full of colours
Desperate to display the resplendent brightness
you initiate with each new submission
I become impotent at the sight of pristine parchment
trying to write in ink instead of blood
Aspiring to create a work of such delicacy
even Hephaestus's wife weep
How do I tell someone that I've never met
I ache to see them?
I yearn for their touch?
I long to hold them?
I'm desperate to kiss them?
I aspire to loving them?
How do I tell a stranger that I love them?
I suppose I just have
