Love Poem: Insert Name Here

Insert Name Here

Your smile overshadows your desire to cry
but I see the sadness beneath those eyes
your soul needs a place to hide and disguise
the true feelings you harbor within you

Why are you so sad tonight?
words come still, yet so contrite
don't speak at all - you've got that right
that's not been taken from you

Can you express how you feel about me?
probably not, that's not reality
don’t know that I would want to see
that I didn't know the right way to love you

You matter to me more than words can say
but for now I'm just stayin' out of your way
‘til you approach me on your own one day
I’ll be ready with these arms to hold you
