In quiet moments, my heart aches

For love that’s real, but paths we take

Your smile, a light I’ll never hold

A story left, in silence told.

I see your joy. your eyes so bright,

In another’s arms, a distant sight,

I cherish words we’ll never speak,

In shadows where our hearts may meet.

You are the dream I can’t embrace,

A fleeting touch, a longing trace,

In every glance, a whispered plea,

A love that’s bound in what can’t be.

So here I stand, a silent muse,

With love that fate won’t let me choose,

For my heart, you’ll always stay,

A love that time won’t take away.
