Secretly

So many times I have thought of forgetting myself

And pouring my heart and its feelings,

Just to profess my love for you

To tell how I've loved you in secret

    You seemed like a blessing from heaven

But I felt my love was not worthy of you

And thus, I decided to stay away

And adore your memories in solitude

So that nobody would know of my love,

Keeping it hidden forever,

And nobody would see my tears.

But now that you come to me asking what has happened,

How am I supposed to say that I love you?

Will that be worthy?

Will that be acceptable?

It just seems I do matter to you,

Will you give me true confidence?

Will my feelings be pampered with honor then?
