The secret admirer

.

As I first set my eyes on you,

I’m lost; I don’t know what to do.

To me you’re a complete alien,

Coming from another planet.

Goddess lost in the world of men,

An angel fallen from heaven.

And as you pass by you leave me

With, in the heart, a strange aching.

.

Yet you’re so far away, from my heart.

Yet you’re so far away, unreachable.

I wanna shout your name.

I wanna grab your hand.

I want to yell out to you,

To tell you I love you.

But you’re so far away, from my heart.

But you’re so far away, unreachable.

.

You are my sky, my horizon,

You are the border of my world.

I could stare at you all my life,

I swear I would never be bored.

I do want you with all my heart,

You strike me to the core, but yet

When I try to reach out to you,

I find myself unable to.

.

Cause you’re so far away, from my heart.

Cause you’re so far away, unreachable.

I wanna take you in my arms,

I wanna kiss your sweet, sweet lips.

Oh I want to learn to know you,

To be able to make you laugh.

But you’re so far away, from my heart.

But you’re so far away, unreachable.

.

I often dream being with you,

Sitting there and simply talking.

Speaking about irrelevant things,

And you, you just keep on smiling.

Just the two of us, you mesmerizing.

Just the two of us, each minute passing

To me there is no other star like you,

Always shining so brightly,

Perfect image of beauty.

I want, I try, to get closer to you.

I would rise so high, I would fall so low,

I love you more than you will ever know.

.


No time, energy or inspiration tonight so here is something I wrote quite some time ago now, not really a poem per say, more like a song. It’s not perfect, quite rough even to be honest, but it brings back memories.
