#TheUnrequitedLove

I have admired you from a distance
A little peek, a nervous glance
Your precious smiles make my heart dance
A heart I'd give at any chance

I'd take you to a bed of roses
And let you feel my loving caress
But you might think it's just a jest
A cheesy joke, a funny test

I have only one heart to give
Take it and don't remain impassive
For many years, it has let me live
But with this love, it's now corrosive

This pain is new and vastly different
A painful shock from an electric current
This must mean we're not meant to be
But it is hard to set love free

Now I am left with a shattered heart
With one half and a missing part
One-sided love twisted and bent
Crying over the shards I have spent
