Hidden

by: R. A. Cvetich

I toss and turn tonight but find no peace
These tears fall from my eyes and they don't cease
I lie awake; can't help but wonder why
Your face appears in every tear I cry
All I can do is wish I had you here
I feel so empty when you are not near
And all I long to do is see your face
To feel the gentle warmth of your embrace
To once again know how my heart goes wild
When my eyes drink deep of your perfect smile
The look that's in your eyes that sets me free
The way I melt when you move close to me
These precious aspects merely disappear
Each feeling quickly fades back into tears
I cage all these emotions up inside
They pain me so when you're not by my side
Oh how I long to feel the sweet release
But all I feel is my heartache increase
For I retain these things you cannot know
Since if you knew I fear you'd let me go
Because the way I feel has grown so strong
I feel as if with you's where I belong
But do you feel like this inside your heart?
Are you in pain, like I, when we're apart?
For if you do not feel the way I do
I couldn't bear if it made me lose you
Since that would simply leave me here without
The only one I ever cared about
So I'll keep all these feelings locked up tight
Though I long to be in your arms tonight
I'll hide all these emotions I can't show
I fell for you and you don't even know.
