Dreams, Contrasts and Realities

Realities: --- break ---

Judge for Yourself if I Love You --- break ---

If by my words alone you do not know,
Then judge me with your eyes, heart and mind.
Behind my words the truth obscured,
By my actions know my heart,
The truth beguiles my mind, to save my heart.

I cannot speak my mind,
Nor find the strength deep within,
But look for what I do not say,
Or what I do not do,
The truth betrays my mind, to save my heart.

Hidden in plain sight,
My heart and hands held out,
My feelings at once concealed within,
But displayed for you to read,
Hidden but not unwritten,
The truth escapes my mind, to save my heart.

Do I tell you I do not love you?
Do I push you far from my side?
Do I look blankly when you stay?
If I betray any secret emotions,
By my actions not words alone, judge me,
The truth thwarts my mind, to save my heart
