You Don’t Know
You don’t know
When you hold my hand
or touch me in hurry — flying
With a gush or bump or beat
My heart beats loud
You don’t know
When you come
I feel it deep
deep in my heart
you are mine
yet, you don’t know
you don’t know when I look at you
always, yes, you don’t know
I look you in the stars,
in the oceans, and skies
I look you in the rising sun
and enchanting moon
and search you in the darkest night
you are the light
my life’s light
my eyes sight
you don’t know
when you go,
go away,
I feel it strong, strong pain in my heart
and wish to hold you back
close to my heart and kiss you and love you
always, forever and ever
you don’t know.
