The words I cannot speak
The thoughts I dare to think
That fear in your heart
A shipwreck yet to sink

The eyes that never softened
The lips that couldn't move
The love you never gave
The love you had to prove

My reason to keep waiting
The inconsistent desire
My reason to keep leaving
The one to hardly admit the admire

Keeping yourself away
Hidden and tight
Leaving doors unlocked
Hoping for a familiar goodnight

So beautifully confusing
Afraid and almost bold
A game no longer amusing
A hopeful thought growing cold

You are 22 lines of endless notions
You are all of the stars fallen to the ocean
