Loving you in silence
Is seeing you so much
Talking with you so often
And yet knowing
For you there is nothing to say
Or anything to see
Of me at all
Loving you in silence
Is watching
Your heart grow fonder
For someone else
And I find I am honestly
Wishing you happiness
As the tears
I’d never cry without
Fall hard within
Loving you in silence
Is seeing the light of your smile
Shining so brightly
As we chat about the future
And that when you say “we”
You will never mean “us”
Loving you in silence
Is knowing the chance
Of what might have been
Is forever overshadowed
By the reality
Of what will never be
And with a smile
Loving you in silence
Is realizing
I’m okay with that
And can finally
Move on

the we never being us…hard reality right there….and the loving you in silence as well…at some point it is just time to move on….great refrain line…
Hard reality indeed, thank you Brian.
Awesome write, Raivenne. I know this feeling, and you’ve written it quite well!
Thanks Charles, though let’s face it – reciprocity is so much better.
Nice write.
Thanks.
You describe so gracefully a situation that can hold much bitterly. k.
Agh, I meant much bitterness.
It can, until one can finally move on. Thanks Manic.
selfless love costs and leads to pains,
indeed mutual relation is expected.
very honest and powerful love shared,
Happy Halloween!
“indeed mutual relation is expected.”
Ah, but love as with so many other things is rife with the unexpected. Thank you, Aya.
