In shadows cast by his radiant light,
My heart seeks solace in the silent night.
Each word he utters, a distant star,
Reminds me of the distance, how far we are.

I strive to climb the heights of his dreams,
Yet falter, tangled in my own seams.
His gaze, a mirror to my flaws,
Reflects a love bound by unwritten laws.

Through whispered hopes and hidden tears,
I battle shadows born of my fears.
His touch, a fleeting, ghostly embrace,
Leaves traces of yearning on my face.

In the quiet, I hear his silent plea,
A song of love that may never be.
For in his world of endless grace,
I find myself, a misplaced trace.
