No Words

I want to see you
Want to talk to you
But I open my mouth
Nothing comes out
So I wrote a poem
A simple love note
But I didn’t send it
Just used it to pretend that
You were hearing me
Even though it was clear
And I could hear with my ears
You were not near
Seemed even more distant
When words won’t work
There are other ways to share our thoughts
Other ways for me to tell you your beautiful
I painted a picture
Drew a cartoon
Thought that soon our love would bloom
I got word, you thought It was special
Not enough to let me test ya
Not to find out if your worthy of me
Other way around
Wondered if you would be the one to turn my heart around
Currently it is a frown
More time went by
More distance
Why can’t I stop thinking of this?
What more to try?
All I’ve done is be denied
But when I think of her
It is only sunshine
Her beautiful eyes
And the entire night sky
How might I see you?
I’ve tried words
I’ve tried pictures
I’ll try numbers if I have to
Appear in your dreams to get atcha
Let’s stop pretending
See if you and me will be a happy ending
