maybe i'll get to say i love you - poem

In every heart
there is a song
of the good , the bad,
the right and the wrong

we hold ourselves to what we see
and sometimes forget what we really want to be

something holds me back
when I come your way
I can never find the words
to tell you what I want to say

I always want to say
I love you
because I know in my heart
that it is true

But I don't think
you could understand
how I feel like this
There is something
I'm sure you would miss

So I turn and face the wind
and somehow I feel as if I have sinned
I'll tell you it ' s the wind in my eye
that has made me begin to cry

It is not going to be
my heart that aches
because I cannot
place the stakes

But one day
we'll meet on the sacred ground
and we'll be chased by this hound

The truth
it will come out
and our feelings
will no longer be in doubt.

Because
in every heart
there is a song
of the good , the bad,
the right and the wrong
