Silence surrounds me
It's depth is profound
The household is sleeping
No one is around
My thoughts take to wandering
Straying often back to you
Yet I am trying to keep my head straight
while wondering what I should do.
I know I am not worth it
I have been told so before
Yet I find myself so happy
Why you briefly open that door
Those tantalizing glimpses
Of what we could be
Keeps my deepest hopes alive
Is it making a fool out of me
So I carefully take all of my hopes
And my dreams of happiness too
Storing them in my heart's deepest pocket
Waiting for the things you need to work through.

This is wonderfully written and of course you're worth it (just ask us!), and I also think you're writing in a bit of softer way.
