In shadows deep, my heart does yearn,
For love that speaks, yet never heard.
Your smile, a beacon in the night,
Ignites a hope, a fragile light.

Each glance you cast, a gentle breeze,
That stirs the soul, yet brings unease.
I linger near, in quiet despair,
Wishing you’d see the love I bear.

Your laughter rings, a melody sweet,
A tune that makes my heart skip a beat.
Yet in your eyes, I’m just a friend,
A painful truth I can’t amend.

So here I stand, with love untold,
In silent dreams, both brave and bold.
A one-sided love, a silent plea,
Forever lost in reverie.
