Fire Within

A poem I wrote about how poeple can hide their feelings for one another and the other is oblivious to those feelings.

Burning deep within
A hidden fire
Unstoppable flames
Fueled with desire

My heart beats faster
The closer you come
Ba doom Ba doom Ba doom
It sounds like a drum

Hopefully you can’t hear it
As I do
My hidden feelings
Do they shine through

Can you tell that I love you
That you make my knees go weak
And in my dreams
It is you that I seek

Does my face show
That I miss you
When your not there
Does it show my love for you
How much I care

Unspoken words
To say
I do not dare
In times of happiness and sorrow
My soul to you I would bare

I long for your touch
For your sweet lips on mine
Your tender caress
A dream within a dream
It would be so fine

Tormented by my feelings
For you I would give my blood
Overwhelming emotions
I just need some sort of flood

For there’s a fire burning
Inside of me
My mind and body
Are out of control
And this fire is burning
Everything I know
But somehow today
My feelings didn’t show

Ok second attempt at a comment…lol

I love this, its amazing how many people don’t share their true feelings.

Thanks for the lovely comments on my poems, really appreciated.

Of course my other comment said more than this, its never quite the same the second time around..lol

Wow, this is intense. You managed to convey how excruciating it can be for someone who longs for another without them ever knowing. Beautifully done.
