You turn to look at me and smile And I wander, as I stare into your eyes How it is that you do not know. Are you really so blind that you Cannot see what is right in front of you? My hesitant smile, my soft words spoken Into the tense silence say it all Why aren't you listening? Or are you aware, without words, Of the things I feel for you? How can you know, but give no sign Either to drive me away or pull me closer. I am mired in the quicksand of my heart. Until you speak, I cannot move. Shall I be doomed to eternal torment Over such a small thing, A few mere words?
