Guess Who? Poem by Shierylle Barison

I miss you dearly, that's no lie.
Each heartbeat whispers your name; I don't know why.

Revealing emotion, do I need to express this longing that I feel inside?
Joyful moments often seem to need to be hidden.

Dared to dream, but lost in the haze,
Easily caught in love's wicked maze.

Last night I was in deep thought.
Am I loved? Or left to refuse?

Fearful of how deep this feeling can grow,
Untamed and wild—how can I let go?
Enduring the pain, I still chase your light.
Nasty and twisted, yet still feels so right.
Time under pressure, but willing to test my fate.
Every beat of my heart—where should I end?

Enough is the fight to keep love alive.
Sacrifice all, just to thrive and survive.
