In the quiet corners of my heart, you linger,
A melody that plays, yet unheard,
Each note a whisper of my longing,
A song of love, to you deferred.

Your eyes, like stars, they shine so bright,
Guiding me through the darkest night,
Yet in your gaze, I find no light,
A love unseen, a hidden plight.

I speak in silence, words unspoken,
My heart, a symphony that’s broken,
You are the dream I keep on hoping,
A love that’s lost, forever groping.

Still, I cherish each fleeting glance,
A bitter-sweet, unending dance,
For in this pain, I find my stance,
In one-sided love, a fleeting chance.
