A SILENT LOVE SONG

They say feelings will come and then go

but not for you my beau;

that evening in the desert when you said

‘there’s nothing quite like being read

through the eyes without a word

as that’s when our hearts are so blurred’.

Somehow you know me so well;

whoever said we needed time to tell?

Maybe one day I’ll write you a love song

‘cause darling my heart beats so strong;

so intense is this rush of emotion,

I’m hiding my inner commotion.

I don’t dare to face you right on;

what if this moment is gone?

My body is filled with the fire of the sun;

hold me close, and I’ll never run.
