Love, Locked Away Poem by Edwina Reizer

She hid her love for much too long.
She would not let it show.
She walked alone on lonely paths
where colorless flowers grow.

She kept her love inside her heart
where silently it grew.
She roamed alone among tall trees
where silent birds all flew.

And when at night she lie abed
she cried inside her mind.
She slept alone with lonely dreams
where love is left behind.

The flowers were colorful, birds did sing
but they were not seen or heard.
For all of her lonely dreams at night
left her heart unstirred.
