Inspired

I speak,
But the words I say aren't real.
In my head I see the truth,
Though it will never be spoken.

I look into her eyes,
Deep into her smile.
Trying to decipher the unknown.
Hoping that what I wish is behind the curtain.

Misunderstood.
Misunderstanding.
Assumptions take over, though I do not know it.
All I can do is lock my emotion away.

The truth can't exist.
Fear is too free.
Too much talking may scare her away,
And I'd rather have little than nothing at all.
