Deadly Silence

laying awake, restless
watching the dramatization of my emotions
…as they careen across my mind’s eye
once flames of inspiration burning inside me
now, only embers
trying desperately, hoping to convince myself
these words, these feelings
…were I to mention them
would not be construed as malignant
they embody my affection
an agape for so long I’ve held
in hope that you may come to know
