Silently, I Love

Rumi's words inspired mine

The lyrics of my heart he poured

As their sadness shadowed joy

The stubborn tears

Held back no more.

You are the secret of my mind

I think of you behind closed doors

fastened tightly and deadlocked

All that I might ask of you

Lips sealed in silence evermore. 

In my dreams your lips I'll find

Ecstacy through them shall flow

Our body and our soul entwined

Who is there to stop me say

In love, we'll be for ever more

I choose the silence over words

I choose the empty space in between our worlds

I choose to whisper for only you to hear

I choose the distance over us being near

I choose my dreams over reality

All this because 

I choose YOU over me
