Incredible Fear

What I can't say to you

Because you can't hear

Are words that promote

Our incredible fear

To be nurtured and loved

To take your breath away

And be open to enjoying

Each and every day

Not smothering or owning

Not until death do us part

Just an open invitation

To knowing each others hearts

No promise of forever

No “Let me lead the way”

Just an excitement between us

That no words can say

But you can't hear

What I have to say

As we can't seem to see

But the end of the play

What could have been

Was not a forever

Nor the love of your life

Forever together

Maybe we both want it

Maybe we fear it so

That neither will have it

Cause we can't let go

I in my need and you in yours

We travel long side each other

Looking for the same

Only with another

So I'll say the words

That I know you can't hear

I'll invoke between us

That incredible fear

The need to be held

To feel you inside

Deep in my body

Where my heart resides
