Silent love, a secret flame
Buried deep, it causes pain
Words unspoken, feelings kept
A heart that aches, a love that's slept

Eyes that long to meet and stare
But fear and doubt, they both ensnare
A touch that's yearned, a kiss that's missed
A love that's unexpressed, dismissed

But still it burns, a bright desire
A love that's pure, a fire that's higher
And though it may remain unseen
It's strength will never be diminished, evergreen

For love that's unexpressed, is love that's true
And one day, it will be shared, and come to fruition anew.
