Behind the eclipse of love hides shy.

Behind the eclipse of love hides shy.

The lack of depth in words said, shy

looked down upon, by impatience;

the receiver turned, walking away.

Not knowing what was coming up

beneath the layers of truth

to be said, shy heart.

Love took time to surface.

Breaking the barriers, 

too late to perceive,

left standing alone,

love retreated.

While shy hides behind

the eclipse of love,

waiting, wanting.

This is really sweet.

I am shy so I can relate. Only recently trying to break free from that coz of how the poem ends.

I like how you included the word shy in it. Shy love. Nice one.
