Timid

The hopeful timid feeling,
Vulnerable in this silence,
I can’t speak a word,
A calm tenderness,
A trifling anticipation,
Holding on to my heart so tightly,
I faintly hear a yes.
Amidst all this chaos,
I wish to hear your voice,
Say it once more,
Let me cherish it’s tender mess.
Revert revert,
Where have I gone,
This heart within me,
Where was it all along ?
