1. Unrequited Love
Lonely teardrops flow through my eyes,
dampening my aching heart
that beats only for you beloved
as we are drifted apart.
A restless thought gnaws at my mind_
When will our restless souls meet?
The trepidation of uncertainty
numbs my senses.
As I feel a kiss of your breath,
a rapturous joy envelops me
drowning me in a tumultuous ocean,
flowing through my being.
My feelings are tearing me apart
like the waves that treacherously depart
from the bed of the sifting sands.
Haunting thoughts of you that lie deep within
linger on unabatedly.
I ponder, I brood, I moan.
A warm silence palpitates and sweeps
through the flickering, aromatic candlelight.
I pause to wonder_
Could you be thinking of me too?
The magical moments of our love enshrined, revisited.
The passion of our love unrequited.
