Understand my silence .

“I choose to love you in silence 
for in silence I receive no rejection. 

I choose to love you in loneliness 
for in loneliness no one owns you but I. 

I choose to adore you from a distance 
for distance will shield us from pain. 

I choose to kiss you in the wind 
for the wind is gentler than my lips. 

I choose to hold you in my dreams 
for in my dreams you have no end. 

‘If you don’t understand my silence, how will you understand my words?’”
