Unspoken I sit and wait for you. Time passes slowly Minutes, hours, days I wait. Knowing that each phase of the moon Brings my dreams closer. Soon I will have you here In my arms where you belong. The words I long to say Will sit on my lips Unspoken. My fear will hold me back. I’ll look at you With my emotions shining in my eyes. Will you see it? Probably not. After all the waiting I’ll still be too scared to speak To reveal my true feelings. But I’ll keep waiting For the day when we’re both Ready. ------------------ It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E.

At times when waiting in utter silence is when the unspoken is heard the loudest - from within.... well done Tara Shawn |

Thank you for the comments. I wrote this one before he ever came to visit. And just as I predicted, the words went unspoken, but not unfelt. I'm debating on whether or not to show him the poem. ------------------ It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E.

My dear Tara, those words will come and all the fear will be erased. It feels so right because it is so right! (((((Tara))))))) Remember, Pink is my favorite color!!! (Ask me if you wonder what the heck THAT means!) ------------------ Julie Jordan Scott is a Freelance Writer and Public Speaker, but her favorite role is that of Mommy!

Pink bridesmaid's dress, Julie? You must be joking! I would never pick pink. Pepper, I'm mulling it over. The thought terrifies me! Caroline, he only made me cry once. I had asked him to come visit me back in March, he thought it over and finally said No. I cried when I got off the phone that night. But I'm so glad he changed his mind! |
