Screams of silence into the night
Vaporize and disappear.
Only three words I wabt you --
I need you, to hear.
All will be turmoil until
"I need you," lands upon your ear.
Then your response which echoes
Back softly, I don't want to hear.
The heart-wrenching "No" shall only
Bring forth a tear.
And so I condemn my heart
To a life of torturous fear,
All due to three simple words
I need you to hear...

Yesterday is history, tomorrow just a mystery. And if today is good to me how could I ask for more?

Beri: So sad and it's a rotten feeling when you can't speak the language of your heart..

Big hugs to you

Totally agree with RainbowGirl on this one... It really sucks to not be able to say all you need to, especially when the other is clearly not ready to hear it, say anything to know what to do with it if they did. Sad, and well written at that

Life is what you make of it... Not what you let it be
