In the quiet corners of my mind
In the quiet corners of my mind,
where thoughts intertwine with the wind of the night,
I remain still, pushing you away, though you cannot see,
the love I keep hidden and true,
a truth I hold just for myself.
I will never tell you how I feel,
nor show the warmth beneath my apparent calm,
for your joy, I will keep this secret,
and watch your happiness from afar.
Your smile will not be because of me,
just as your tears will not fall for what I have done,
you will find your light and chase your dreams,
while I remain the shadowed one.
So here I stay, a silent friend,
watching you grow and feeling proud,
my love remains a quiet song,
that you will never hear but will always know.
In the twilight of my thoughts,
where shadows intertwine with the whispers of the wind,
I lose myself in the silence between us,
an abyss of unexpressed feelings,
in a love story that was never written,
a story known only to me.
Every day, I watch you follow your path,
a dance of lights and shadows, a ballet of destiny,
and I, a silent spectator, applaud your every step,
with a heart full of unspoken love.
In melancholic evenings, when stars light up the sky,
I imagine a world where I could tell you everything,
but reality swallows me and reminds me of my role,
a silent protector of your happiness.
I wish to whisper to you about my dreams,
about the desires that burn within me,
but I choose to remain in the shadows, for your sake,
letting you shine in your own light.
For my love, though silent and unseen,
is eternal and pure, like an underground river,
flowing through my soul, nourishing the soil of your hopes,
and even if you never know it,
it will always be there, by your side.
In this silent love story,
I am an unseen guardian of your smile,
a poet of unspoken emotions, a sculptor of your dreams,
and though you will never know,
my love will live in every step you take.
So, in the quiet corners of my mind,
I will continue to love you from a distance,
a silent friend, a faithful shadow,
in a love story that will never end.
