How do I let you know
The way I feel inside?
How on earth do I show
What I've tried so hard to hide?

What I feel is so strong
I doubt it will ever be gone.
But I've been your friend for so long
I know not how to move on.

Beyond a friendship, into something more.
Fear is so cruel
My mind and my heart are at war.
But emotions make not a fool.

Still to this day,
Try though I may,
I have no words to say
That I need you to show me the way.

Can you lead me out of the night,
Can you show me what to do?
When the words won't come out right,
How can I say I love you?

Beautiful! I am feeling this now, and if I get the guts, I will email this to him.

Tara: Email this to whomever "him" is. It might make his day.

Thank you all very much. I'm glad you all enjoyed this. I posted as a reply to a visitor's request, I only hope that this is what he wanted and that he has found it and made the impression he was hoping to make.

Good for you! I'm glad...I have been told this many times in my life and now I pass it on to you...you will never get anything in life if you don't take a few risks to get there. Sometimes it's worth the risk. And if he deserves you then he will appreciate the effort. I wish you the best of luck!

Been there Starith, know the feeling well.
How do you tell him? From the heart!!

Thank you Romantic. I'm glad you enjoyed this.

Isis...I to know the feeling, however this poem was not written for that reason...it was written as an answer to a visitor's request. But I have been through some similar times.
