Wallflower Signs
It’s a silent ache
from the sidelines
as serenades adorn many hearts
mine beats in time to your smile
but never
a whisper, or a word,
is spoken or heard
it’s the waltz in the dark
the bare and stark
contrast to the pain
which bares my shame
as I lovingly adore
chest caved & sore
cheering forever more, my love
Forever, more
