In the quiet corners of my mind, you reside,
A gentle whisper, a fleeting glance,
A heartbeat skipped, a smile denied,
Yet in your presence, my soul does dance.

Eyes that meet and quickly part,
A secret longing in the dark,
A fluttering of an unseen heart,
Wishing upon a distant spark.

Words unsaid, dreams unspoken,
A tender ache, a sweet devotion,
In this silence, my heart is broken,
Lost in waves of deep emotion.

Oh, if only you could see,
The world you paint inside of me,
A love so pure, so wild, so free,
Yet bound by fear, it cannot be.
