Yearn Poem by Nicole Jaimie Carothers

I want so bad to tell you
whisper in your ear those little words
that will make or break my heart...my soul
I want so bad to hold you tonight
run my fingers down your body
rest my head upon your chest
hearing the heart that could beat for me
I want to scream your name
to every person who passes me by
I want to make a promise with my lips
Because you dont know
I will give up everything for you
Can you just promise me
when i do whisper
when i do cry your name
when i do scream those words
I love you
...dont say them back
Leave me as I was
I can only bring you misery
and ruin.
