A Love Lost

So close to you
Yet so far away.

I can't look in your eyes for the fear
That you'll read my thoughts, and then
It will all be over.

Why you? Why me?
The question on my lips
Left unspoken.

I try not to give in -
To these feelings -
To you.

I pray.
That's all I can do.
Pray that you will walk your way, and
I will walk mine.

One day, maybe -
Though the chance be thinner than thread -
We will walk the same path.

But until then
I will think of you no more.

Until then
I will keep my heart whole.

Until then
Goodbye.
