I’ve not seen you
For a decade maybe more
You’ve grown into a gorgeous woman
One so beautiful that it makes me cry
Angelic and delicate
My eyes paint you in porcelain
So seamlessly perfect
In any light you bathe in
With eyes so subtle and serene
I melt into a feeling a can’t describe
So beautiful and so peaceful
I find myself dreaming in your presence
Can it be so wrong
To want the love of a beautiful woman
I will spend my waking days
Thinking of how you left an impression
A touch, a hug, a kiss
A triangle of hope that I so desire
But you will never see me
As a man that you could love
It’s hard to want what we can’t have
And even harder to keep what we do
If only you could feel what I feel for you
You would know why it is I cry
Words fail me now
As I try to describe you here
All I have is this memory
Firmly imprinted on my mind
