“His heart couldn't say truly What he wanted too When would he lift the veil over his silence He is falling for her deeply, madly, insanely So then why is he silent His soul feels so close to her He feels these overwhelming emotions consuming him These feelings came to him unexpectedly He loses his confidence, his pride when thoughts of her cloud his mind This unexpected attachment In the day he convinces himself this is all in his mind At night his soul is screaming for her, he calls for her He never expected his soul to respond so powerfully and only to her She has captivated him She has become the owner of his heart And him He is a prisoner of his heart His silence isn't indifference He is afraid of being near her He fears losing control As he dissolve's in these emotions She awakened in him a part of his soul he never knew existed He has become vulnerable in these emotions Her entire existence is a streak of light in his darkness He pretends not to notice her But inside his soul trembles When he hears her name his heart skips beats He hides behind a wall of silence afraid to speak as it may change everything His lips are sealed but his soul is screaming He want to tell her, she is his everything He feels her in everything around him When he is with her he truly lives His words cry through the universe He feels her He is mad for her His life is tangled in his silence He has so many duties and responsibilities But his heart is longing He prays that she walks towards him He has already said everything to her in his mind He prays that soon she will be his He prays soon he could confess everything He prays soon her heart and soul would belong to him”
