Words Unspoken

Wish at night I held you tight
To keep away cruel darkness' chill
Wish each day to make you smile
smile all th' way through

Wish to share all that there's
To have: life's joys, its pains,
Its strifes, surprises, and refrains
refrain is what I do

My passion's river runs far deeper--
Bottomless to wonted streams of men--
With more than just lusts and interests.
I've reservoirs measured in lifeblood's treasure
That in_a lifetime you could'n_drink_it all in.

Words unspoken leave hearts unbroken
except for mine, except for mine
There's no hurtin worth forlorn's burden
it just takes time, it just takes time
And when all is said and done, we are both only one
Two silhouettes on distant shores
nothing more, nothing more

In this winter I will shiver
And wrap a blanket around myself
I'll wrap my arms around no one else
no one else but me

Before the fire I'll retire
And take in hot drinks in sips,
While thinking of the warmth your lips would give
your lips would give to me

There's no confessing my obsessing--
Nor will you give admission to yours--
We stare across a hazardous ocean,
Two silhouetted lovers longing for each other
From two very distant, different shores.

Words unspoken leave hearts unbroken
except for mine, except for mine
There's no hurtin worth forlorn's burden
it just takes time, it just takes time
And when all is said and done, we are both only one
Two silhouettes on distant shores
nothing more, nothing more

Were I to take your hand,
Were we to walk these lonesome avenues
laid out in veins and pulse,

Would my heart with you lie?
Could it be that I were true to you
whilst to my self were false?

Does doubt mark sooth, or
Are choice and action sufficiently true?
or am I
deceiving
us both?

Yes, words unspoken leave hearts unbroken
except for mine, except for mine
