Fragments


Sitting so quiet
next to the noise you make
inside my mind and my soul,
I can’t deny it,
my heart starts to quake
when you look at me as if you know.

You speak, joke and laugh,
touch my knee with your hand;
the words go in out my ears.
The hope of your love
is like washing the sand
off of the beach of my fears.

What is this stigma
which shames me to silence?
Why do I keep myself shy?
Is it some hidden fragment
of the last broken romance
which pains every move that I try?

this timid characteristic could be an attraction, like the words in your poem.  your feelings are very well expressed and the words flow nicely!!

Hold onto that feeling of love, but also share it freely. We need all the love we can get floating around out here this week.
