Release of Emotions

A Poem About When a Special Person Comes into Your Life

You came into my life

at a time when I didn't know it

yet,

but the feelings came

all at once.

Bottled up for so long,

they built up more and more

each time we met.

Yet

you never knew,

I wouldn't say a word.

Keeping a secret

until I could keep

quiet no more.

Wanting to tell you

many times

my feelings.

Instead I left the words unsaid.

Watching you from the sidelines,

hoping you would notice me.

Another day passed,

another day left in the dark.

It gets harder now

whenever our eyes meet

knowing how I will never

say the words that need to be said.

Not fully knowing

why I can't find it in me

to say how I feel.

While I wish I could say

to you in person

everything that is on my mind,

inside is where everything will stay.

And written word will describe

the happiness you bring me

every hour of every day.

Note: I'm in the process of writing a poetry book and posting poems here to see which ones would be the best to put in my book. My poem ideas come from dreams I have where I use them as a basis for a theme of the poem. In this one, I dreamt I was stuck in a sudden snowstorm and I couldn't find my way back home due to it. The poem itself isn't about anyone in particular, but could be for everyone who has had that one special person come into their lives and you wish you could tell them how you feel.
