Concealed Love

By Hayley

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You turn to me with frozen eyes,those bars that hold you in.Your soul, longing to be freeand I, wanting to get in.This charade can no longer be performed,the curtain has fallen, the lights are out.The love that could have been, has goneand I'm left staring into those frozen eyes.Your attempts cannot hide the flame within.Every breath, every heartbeat is a whisperof your unspoken love.Like a tiger imprisoned in a cage,the hidden you has to be free.Slowly that flame can free you.Do not shelter yourself from the chances ofwhat might be, but open your heart to theknowing that you are loved beyondcomprehension. In time your eyes will see. Written April 20th, 2001 © on Oct 24 2001 02:17 PM PST   18 • 0 • 8
