Your averted gaze, a cruel rejection,
A hollow void of words, a heart's affliction,
I yearn for them, I yearn for you,
A yearning unrequited, a soul in blue.

I call your name, my voice unsure,
Hoping for a response, an open door,
But all I see is a mocking smile,
A piercing jest that wounds a while.

I reach out to grasp your hand,
To find some solace, some promised land,
But all I feel is the cold of your disdain,
A stark reminder of my endless pain.

My memories of you remain evergreen,
But yours have faded, it would seem,
And I am but a stranger, a fading sigh,
A moment of laughter, a love's cruel lie.
