For years I have been silent <br />I hold a beautiful secret you and I share <br />For years I have no expectations from you <br />Not your love, not your hand to hold unto <br /> <br />Just to know where you are was enough <br />You are near, yet so far <br />And far, yet so near <br />It didn't matter, you are always where you should be: <br />In a peaceful corner of my heart <br /> <br />These days I am running out of options <br />My back is against the wall <br />Though fate has been kind <br />Mother of fortune has not been <br /> <br />I come in humility to you, and understanding I have asked <br />Not wanting to disrupt your charmed existence <br />Just hoping your heart would beat for us, more than once <br /> <br />I lay awake at nights holding back my tears <br />For I have come so far and yet here I am now <br />Why am I begging for something? <br />That should have been mine on the first place<br /><br />June FeirCruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/code-of-silence-4/
