Loving in Silence

Loving in Silence

A Poem by Makatang Prinsesa
"

Out of a quote by Stephen King about the power of words left unsaid, I composed a poem in minutes about saying “I Love You”. It is all about choosing to love someone in silence and holding back.

"
At times, I’d like to utter “I Love You” to you
But I know they’re the three most important words that’s hardest to say when it’s true,
Words become empty, senseless, emotionless
When you gather the courage to speak them up,
But you can’t prove it otherwise.

I chose to love you in silence
For I know in doing this, I will feel no pain,
It’s only me who knows the raging feelings I kept inside
There’s no rejection loving you from afar
You’ll never understand that when our eyes meet, it’s already heaven for me.

“I Love You”
People tend to overuse these precious words time and again
But as years pass by, is the love still the same?
Will saying these repeatedly bring back memories,
When love was new and hearts can’t bid adieu?

Loving you in silence
Is my way of holding back the love I can give when I am made whole again,
When the scars have all been healed and I have broken free from the chains
If you are the Right One for me then destiny would open its doors
And when that perfect moment comes, we would both say “I have loved you for the longest time”.

Whoa! This hit home a tad...guess someone had to say it, it's felt often enough even by so few.
There is safety in silence, sure, but what is more compelling to me is returning someday to read about the courageous leap back to...the noise...where the right quiet stands out.

Thanks for sharing.
