Is It Because Poem by Heather Kemper

Is It Because



I know I never told you
never said the words out-loud.
Afraid that if I said it
my words would have no sound.

To say that I believed
I was meant to be right here at your side.
That we really had that love
only few are lucky enough to find.

To say out-loud that I believed
I was permanent in your heart.
I could not ever be replaced
would leave me alone here in the dark.

But still my heart believed
it believed in all I've said.
Whether said openly out-loud
it was always there echoing in my head.

Now here we sit
unsure of where we stand.
Of where we'll go from here
if it's together hand in hand.

I can't help but wonder
if it's because my heart believed.
Because I believed forever
and now forever my heart decieved.
