Please Tell..

Tell me,

Trust me…

I can see the sadness

The hurt in your eyes

 

Floating in an abyss of emotions,

She quivered with a thousand “whys’

Why not tell the truth?

Why not share her secret?

 

The need to speak was killing her,

To unburden all the weight,

That she husbanded,

Yet doubts swarmed through her

 

She had already formed the right words,

All the words that she needed,

Were already in her tongue,

But she couldn’t answer him

 

Instead,

Silence exploded between them,

It was as if she could touch it,

She felt the temptation to speak

 

Yet,

She called out sour memories,

Needed to remind herself,

The mistake of trusting

 

He pulled her close in hush,

Her heart willingly answered,

But it was protesting all at once,

Her resolve began weakening…
