Uncertain Heart

Uncertain Heart

Israel Jackson

I say it softly, hoping it’s true, I love you

but does the silence echo it too, I love you?

Your eyes don’t linger long enough to clue

My restless heart on what you might pursue, I love you.

You smile at everyone you know,

How am I meant to read what’s meant for who, I love you,

I trace our conversations for a view,

Searching for hidden signs breaking through, I love you.

If this is only something I construe,

A fragile wish my lonely mind once drew, I love you.

Still, even if my hope proves untrue,

My trembling voice returns to what I knew, I love you.
