In shadows cast by circumstance's veil,
She hides her heart, a secret love's travail,
Her friend's elder brother, a distant star,
In silence, she admires from afar.

With every mention of his cherished name,
Her heart takes flight, a butterfly in flame,
But destiny's decree keeps them apart,
Two worlds that never meet, two longing hearts.

He walks, unknowing, in life's vibrant stream,
While she cherishes him as in a dream,
Her silent love, a story never told,
In her heart's whispers, the truth unfolds.

A tale of love, unspoken, pure, and true,
Where one heart beats for both, yet only few
Shall ever know the depths of her desire,
A silent love, a secret heart's entire.
