I write your name across the page
Like ink that time cannot erase
The words come soft, the lines feel true
But they’re too scared to get to you
Each night I fold a little dream
A memory caught between the seams
But every step stays in its place
Another truth I can’t embrace
These are the letters never sent
The words I hide, the love I meant
They sit inside a quiet drawer
Too loud to speak, too deep to ignore
I love you still
In every word unread
You talk to me like just a friend
And so these pages never end
I’d rather keep this silent flame
Than risk the way you say my name
Someday maybe you’ll find them there
A dusty box beneath the stairs
And all the love I never show
Was just never told
These are the letters never sent
But still they hold what I intend
And though you’ll never read them through
Each line begins and ends with you
A love unspoken
Still true
