Hide

Watching you hide

Shows me your tears.

I see your fear

Written clearly

In your eyes.

Your gaze skirts

Around

The room.

You timidly

Speak, trying to

Keep it a secret.

But I know.

I can feel

Your nerves,

Biting at you,

Ripping you apart.

I sense your

Pain, at the thought

Of rejection.

I can see it

Bubbling beneath the

Surface. But of who,

I cannot find.

If it were towards me,

I would

Smile upon you,

And embrace you,

Wiping away your

Tears. Kissing them

From your

Cheek, and

Showing

My love, deeper than

Anything else

Imaginable.
