Unspoken Love (revised)(Mike Kaupembe) UNSPOKEN LOVE

By Mike Kaupembe

Words I yearned to hear, forever unspoken
Left me adrift in a sea of uncertainty, unbroken
The silence was deafening, a heavy heart to bear
When goodnight kisses were absent, and love was hard to share

I grew up with a conviction, a belief so strong and true
That his heart was cold, but I was wrong, and I didn't know what to do
But now I see the truth, in the love that he showed
A quiet love, unspoken, but forever glow
