Love

The pain inside
greatest than all others
the ultimate of my fears
the haunter of my dreams

it coils and winds
as a snake suffocating the heart
swallowing the life
leaving only pain

i want to speak the truth
to unleash what is held in
get rid of the pain
and hope my life begins anew

my love remains untold
the pain remains inside
i care for him so dearly
but i fear rejection to much to say a word
