So Many Words

By darkness_descends

So many words inside my head,
So many things I should've said.
But I was afraid of how it would sound,
If it was spoken out loud.
I try to say the words but my mouth seems to fail,
And the words remain trapped in my minds' own jail.
Wanting to speak but I have one objection,
The fear of her rejection.
But is it worth losing a friend?
Bringing it all to a devastating end.
Over my own thoughts I seem to trip,
At my heart all the fears rip.
As stupid as it may seem,
I live my life on one seemingly impossible dream.
A dream of us being together,
For a time longer than forever.
All this confusion pulls at my heart,
As the sadness and nightmares slowly tear me apart.
