Emotions
"Silent Love"
Words unspoken,
Emotions hidden inside,
Heart beats faster near you,
Love resides, but I hide.
02
Emotions
"Invisible Pain"
I smile, I laugh,
But pain lives within,
Memories of you haunt me,
Words unspoken to begin.
03
Emotions
"Muted Heart"
My heart speaks,
But voice goes unheard,
Desire to tell you everything,
But my lips remain sealed, absurd.

Emotions
"Speechless Joy"
Watching you from afar,
My heart fills with delight,
Words cannot express it all,
Silent pleasures, a beautiful sight.

Emotions
Silent Longings
Silent longings deep within,
Echoes of a heart's desire,
Yearning to break free and win,
But the words remain in mire.
The eyes speak what the lips won't say,
Invisible tears shed every night,
A plea for love, a wish to stay,
It's a battle within, a constant fight.
Do you hear my unheard voice,
Do you see my unseen pain,
Can you feel my hidden rejoice,
Weaving dreams that won't be in vain.
Silent longings deep within,
Let my heart speak to thee,
For time may slip, life may spin,
But these unspoken words won't set free.

Emotions
Muted Emotions
Muted emotions, locked inside,
A shield of steel, a mask of guise,
No one knows what lays behind,
Hidden deep, a soul that cries.
A laughter that conceals the tears,
A smile that covers the fears,
An embrace that hides the scars,
A heart that sobs behind the bars.
The world goes by, time ticks on,
But the struggles won't be gone,
The speechless words, the voiceless screams,
Echoes of shattered dreams.
Muted emotions, silenced pain,
Is it too late, to speak again,
To let the feelings, flow like a river,
To heal the wounds, to feel alive, forever.
For the day shall come, when it's all said and done,
Muted emotions won't be fun,
Take the leap, break the spell,
For life's too short, to live in a shell.

Emotions
Unspoken Words
Silent whispers in my mind
Unspoken words I cannot find
A weight upon my chest I bear
Deep within, a hidden tear
Emotions roll like waves at sea
A storm inside, raging free
But to others, all is calm and still
Hiding the truth that I cannot reveal
Words left unspoken, thoughts kept inside
Fears that I cannot confide
As I smile and go about my day
Inside, a battle I fight and sway
What if I were to speak my mind?
Would the world be cruel and unkind?
Or would understanding and grace abound
If only these unspoken words were found
So I hold on, day by day
Praying for courage to find a way
To voice the thoughts that hide within
To let the healing process begin
Until then, I'll keep these words sealed tight
Hoping that someday, in the light
My unspoken words will finally find
A voice to break the chains that bind.

Emotions
Unspoken Words
There are words unspoken,
Lingering in the air,
Weightless and yet heavy,
They are too much to bear.
They swirl around my mind,
Haunting and unforgiving,
They beg to be unleashed,
But I keep them imprisoned.
These words are the truth,
That I dare not say out loud,
For fear of the consequences,
Of standing in front of a crowd.
They are the feelings,
That I cannot explain,
The thoughts that push me,
Towards the brink of insane.
Sometimes they are love,
That I cannot express,
Sometimes they are hate,
That I cannot repress.
They are the reminders,
Of the mistakes I've made,
The regrets that hit me,
Like a swift blade.
They are the secrets,
That I hide from the world,
The wounds that won't heal,
The banners that won't unfurled.
These unspoken words,
Are a burden to me,
They are the shackles,
That won't set me free.
But I know that someday,
The words will be let out,
And the weight I carry,
Will finally be without.
