How can I express the depth of what i feel for you in mere words?

I find it only appropriate to describe it as

Suppression.

Before a flower blooms 

The petals are tightly packed 

It is not yet ripe enough to expand 

But once it does bloom 

It is beautiful. 

It is vibrant, it is able to spread out, 

The petals. 

How I feel now

Is like when the flowers aren't ripe yet

They are still growing 

As my love for you is

But it has come to a hault. 

Suppression. 

It feels as if a flower is trying to bloom from inside of me 

Aching to spread its beauty outward 

But it is unable to break out. 

I feel the strain of it wanting to break free from inside of me

Suppression. 

I want to express my love for you, 

As petals long to bloom. 

But it is at a standstill. 

Suppression. 

I want to experience this love blooming 

As gardners see the transformation 

Of their Lilies in the summer. 

But it is near ceasing. 

Suppression.
