One and Only

Within arms reach but untouchable his gaze draws me to him yet his words slice at my heart like a rusted dagger When I crave his touch is when he is most distant I've had him before only to let him go Now I need him but he is out of sight And so, with hopes so low I will keep my head held high and wait patiently for my one and only love

They appear when you least expect it, it seems. Your last three lines I could really relate to through the trials of unrequited love suffered in my youth. I learned the secret of success through the years. A beautiful write. Congratulations on your wonderful win Angela.
