Let Me Love You In Silence

Let me love you in silence,
In silence, there is no expectation,
In silence, we are free.
Free of judgment, free of burden
In silence, only the heart comprehends.

Let me love you, just allow me so
I am not asking you to love me too
No, I will love unconditionally.

Allow me, allow this heart to beat for you.
I won’t get mad,
I won’t get hurt.

I find comfort in knowing
That this love shall continue to grow
Even in silence, I can love you.

I will close my eyes, if I need to
I won’t shed a tear,
I won’t talk with you.
Just allow me a second, to stare at you,
Just let me smile at you, if I want to.

Don’t smile back,
Don’t say hello
I’m not asking you.
Ignore me,
I want you to.
Please do, I won’t bother you.
Like a shadow, I will be
Silent and quiet,
I don’t ask for pity nor kindness
No, I'm not.

Just let me love you, in silence.
I need to love you in solitude
I need to live, I need a reason to
I will let go, soon, not now.
I will let go, when this heart's strong enough
I will forget you, your smiles and shadows.

In time, it will come,
But for now
I beg,
Please, just let me love you.
