Silent Love

Have you ever been silently in love

With someone you can never have?

So close you can touch her hand

Yet, so far to feel her heart?



Have you ever lived in pretense

Quietly loving without any condition?

A feeling of love that's unknown

Hiding it, not knowing for how long.



Have you ever fallen deeply

Loving the person unconditionally?

So afraid to say what you feel

Acting normal, keeping things still.



Have you ever been hurt unintentionally

But put on a smile, pretended to be happy?

Deep inside you're in pain and suffering

But outside you're jolly and laughing.



Why does holding her hand feel so right?

Your heart smiles everytime she's at sight

Hearing her sweet voice makes your day

Hope you can hug her in a special way.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Sometimes the hope longs to touch the skies and dreams rise up to fearful heights. But the heart recognises the mirage.
