A Silent Noise Poem by Yvonne Nthiana

The 'I love you'
Forever a whisper,
Not so loud,
Almost silent,

The writing,
Always never seen,
Not so visible,
Almost blank

The feeling,
Never to be felt,
For fear of rejection,
Almost cold

The dream,
Never to be lived,
Reality scares,
Dreams should hold

This fear,
Never to be expelled,
Bravity not admirable,
Not to try again

This love,
Never to be shared,
To hold so closely,
He should never know this
