unrequited
When I see you, the world around me flies?
When I look at you, your gaze glides.
It all feels good until I know it’s one of my dreams.
You make my life happier by your appearance.
You just don’t know how important your existence is.
Under and inside me lie so many things,
But I hide them for I know that I am not one of those beings.
I wish to be forever in that dream world, but the reality hits me.
Because the dark silence grows, and it is unrequited love.
