Words

Fighting to say the words you want to hear
Secrets want to speak but I’m not willing
My face moulded into a mask of fear
From my hands so much sweat keeps on spilling
Ashamed, Awkward, embarrassed, hesitant.
From my mouth, one by one, words march on out
Slowly, haltingly, to you they are sent
They are said in a soft whisper, not a shout
Yes, these words have been a long time coming
But this moment you didn’t want to miss
So you took my hand in a grasp loving
And you leaned forward to complete the kiss

Your love has given me courage and strength. Thus
I just have to tell the world about us
