Unspoken words lie deep within the caverns of your heart
Consuming you in anguish in their silence
So ruthless in their stand to stay all bottled up inside
They reflect upon your pride with feigned innocence

They speak to you of the grim rejection you will surely find
If you divulge the passion which you feel
Reminding you of the many tears that you have cried
Each time that your true feelings were revealed

You can continue holding all these unspoken words inside
As you listen to the echoes of the fear they resound
But your heart will always wonder if the pride which kept them there
Also kept you from the love you had finally found
