A Little Unspoken Love

Was I obliged to love you?

No.

Was I told to love you?

No.

I have always loved you.

But will you ever know?

I don’t know.


Keeping my emotions silenced had pierced me to the heart,

You were the moonlight to my shadows, you were my love from the start,

I felt like gravity would pull us down and destiny would break us apart.

But still, your gaze would make me feel butterflies, I thought we were a work of art.


I would stare out the window, looking at the stars above,

Time passed like a bullet and I was still searching for love,

Thinking about a time where we would dance in the rain and you would pull out a bag with string,

You’d explain all the riddles leading to this moment and you'd present me with a ring.


Late night we’d arrive from a party, all filled with laughter as time flew like a dove,

We’d forget everything and just acknowledge the fact that we were in love,

You’d somehow have a rose and you’d place it in the silky blossom of my hair,

You’d tell me the reasons you love me and the life you wanted to share.


I knew this was crazy, I knew we were young,

But every time you’d hug me or hold my hand, even a bee’s sting wouldn’t have stung,

Your smile is a radiant burst of golden sparks, it’s so loveable,

Your heart, your arms, and your presence have made me feel so comfortable.


I never wanted to let go, I never wanted to feel bruised,

But, to stop loving you for good? That, I refused,

I knew I had to leave, I knew it was time,

But I couldn’t forget our time together, our unspoken love at prime.


I wish there was a day where we could blissfully say our vows,

And I could say how I would love you as much as time allows,

I guess the universe had spoken,

Our destiny was meant to be broken.


But I will always love you,

Somehow we’ll come through.


My heart will yearn for you the day you ever leave,

So, please never leave me, my love, don’t give me the time to grieve,

I’ll wait for the day of our first kiss,

Something I’ll do anything for, just not to miss.


Until then, I’ll keep my love quiet,

I know I’ll have to deny it,

But, forever my heart will ache for you,

Forever my heart will beat for you.
