I NEED TO SAY

Some thoughts and feelings

Hesitant
Volcanic

Unuttered words hung in the air

This need to share
Imperative
Held barely in check

It's there
Felt in every pore

Yes, you touch a feeling
Bathe in the glow

Yet to name it
Each emotion so true

It gets so difficult
to live with this utter joy

This need to utter words

Falling short
Barely suppressed

Would that there be relief

It becomes more and more difficult
to live with this need to say

What Every gesture
Every emotion
so obviously depicts

And yet fall shy
of words
Held in

Contained
Confined

Just needing to be said....
