I loved you loud, but soft you stayed, A fleeting dream that never swayed. You spoke in laughs, I heard in hope, Each moment held, a tightened rope. Your eyes would shine, not meant for me, A lighthouse lost in someone’s sea. I stayed behind where shadows grew, While you chased dawns I never knew. I whispered stars, you sought the sun, A story inked, but never begun. Still, I bloom in silent grace, Loving you from a distant place.
