A Tear, One Only

The words, they don't come easily,
no slipping off the tongue today.
The autumn beauty sings its song
undone I am, in eyes that say
those words one can't, in feelings fold
in arms of  his, temptations hold.

I long to hear the melody
that plays upon my spirits rise.
Anticipation reaches out,
puzzled by a pieced disguise
those words one can't, hold back, pretend
to softly tread my heart, in blend.

I speak not words that eyes slip out
a tear, one only, trickles down,
expressing deep inside of me
what voice alone, today can't sound.
Allowed, my feelings, wished to place,
my lips to yours, in full embrace.


...unspoken love

M

Now this is very tender, true,
in ways of tears, one only, blue...

Truly wonderful piece, and this, exquisite:

I speak not words that eyes slip out
a tear, one only, trickles down,
expressing deep inside of me
what voice alone, today can't sound.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

"The words, they don't come easily..."---they may not have come easily, but you definitely put pen to paper very effectively with this poem.
