In the depths of my heart, a love resides

In the depths of my heart, a love resides, For the man of my dreams, my soul confides. And yet, though he fulfills my every desire, His affection remains distant, a deep wound, a dire. Each passing day, my longing grows, Every part of me, in yearning shows. But amidst the care, a pain I find, His thoughts and gestures, sometimes leave me behind. A seemingly small act, yet it cuts so deep, Leaving my heart to silently weep. Was it deliberate, to stir my fears? Or simply misunderstood, through my sincere tears? I wish I could release this love's tight grip, But with each attempt, deeper into memories I slip. Dreams of a future, with children by our side, With him, the eternal glow of my heart, wide and bright. So here I am, torn and shattered, In love with a man, yet feeling abandoned. For he holds my heart, but keeps it at bay, Leaving me yearning, day after day. In the darkness of the night, where dreams dance, I hear my heart whispering, in secret, in a trance. A melancholic longing, a song without end, For an unrequited love, a story to transcend. Memories of moments, when our eyes meet, In those moments, our universe is complete. But oh, how quickly that magic fades, Leaving my soul empty, in search of a love that pervades. Through the labyrinth of my heart, I lose myself in thought, A symphony of emotions, of desires and dreams sought. Why does love have to be such a cruel game? To offer hope, only to leave a hollow frame? In every smile of his, I see a universe, But in every absence, I feel a verse in reverse. A poetry of pain, written on a parchment of tears, A love that burns, but cannot be fulfilled through the years. I wish I could forget him, to free my heart, But my love for him is like the boundless sea, apart. It fills my soul, consumes every thought, And yet, leaves me empty, in the cold wind, caught. So here I remain, in this melancholic dance, In love and lost, in an esoteric trance. For an unrequited love, a story without end, I carry my heart, an eternal flame, in an infinite universe.
