Love Unspoken

He held her hand in the dark,

And gently touched her cheek.

Words of love were in his eyes

but she longed to hear him speak.

He tried but failed many times

To get those words just right.

Instead he held her quietly

And loved her through the night.

She turned away as quietly

as the words he couldn’t say.

Through the pain he knew enough

To not stand in her way.

Both lost as they couldn’t give

what they didn’t have inside.

They let go of what might have been

and through their love they lied.

For when two people truly love

They don’t have to look for more.

Love just is and it’s not a want

Of what you had before.
