In the shadows where whispers fade,
Hearts collide but never trade,
A silent dance, a lonely fight,
Unrequited love, hidden from sight.
You passed me by, like a fleeting dream,
Caught in a tide, you’re pulled upstream,
Your laughter echoes, a haunting tune,
While I’m just a ghost beneath the moon.
Every glance a story untold,
Holding on to what’s left of hope so bold,
Dive into the depths, where no one can see,
All the worlds we could have built, you and me.
Unrequited love takes many forms,
A candle lit in quiet storms,
A burning fire that won’t ignite,
In a distant heart, lost to night.
Pictures of you in the corners of my mind,
A bittersweet portrait that time can't unwind,
You wear your armor, so brave, so strong,
While I’m just a note in your symphony’s song.
Every step away feels like a fall,
Riding the currents of a love that stalls,
Chasing shadows in the rearview of dreams,
Drowning in silence, torn at the seams.
Unrequited love takes many forms,
A candle lit in quiet storms,
A burning fire that won’t ignite,
In a distant heart, lost tonight.
Can you hear my silent plea
A melody wrapped inside of me,
Will you ever see, what your light can reveal?
Or am I just lost in the dreams we feel?
Unrequited love takes many forms,
A candle lit in quiet storms,
A burning fire that won’t ignite,
In a distant heart, lost tonight
In the shadows, where whispers fade,
I’ll cherish the love that never made,
Though we wander on separate ways,
Unrequited love seems to dissipate
But I refuse to believe it, still
I have hope in what may be
A never ending love lingers within me
I just hope you eventually see
This passionate fire within me
