azure notch
Beneath the moon’s soft silver glow,
I loved you more than words could show.
You walked beside me, unaware,
While love bloomed heavy in the air.
Your laughter rang, a melody,
Yet none of it was meant for me.
Your eyes would search, but not my face
Another’s name held all their grace.
I followed close, a shadow still,
Through quiet woods, o’er every hill.
Your dreams, you spoke, a future planned,
While mine slipped like the shifting sand.
A thousand moments passed us by,
Each one a chance, a wistful sigh.
To speak, to tell, yet fear held fast,
And so, the silence ever lasts.
Now years have gone, the tale remains,
A heart that loved through joy and pains.
A ballad sung, a bittersweet refrain,
Of one-sided love, forever in vain.
