Crush

The light in my shadows
A beautiful distraction,
A dream I never had.
You are the words behind my silence,
My compass in the night
My comfort from weariness,
A star I can never hold.
I should have grabbed the chance
To utter words unspoken,
But my lips were sealed,
And I ran away.
Forgive my awkwardness,
For my heart is made of paper
And I have to bottle it up
So it won’t leak.
