The Secret Crush

She'd known him her entire life 
She always dreamed to be his wife 
Just his smile made her heart melt 
But she never told him how she really felt 

Forever hoped to have him here 
Always dreamed to hold him near 
Time passed and they both did grow 
But still she never let him know 

Perfect chances passed her by 
But she just couldn't tell this guy 
No matter what she'd ever do... 
He still didn't have a clue 

But one day her whole world did end 
When she heard news from a friend 
About the wreck he'd gotten in... 
She'd never see his smile again 

Now at his grave she softly cries 
The tears running from sad eyes 
This hurting girl whose heart is broken 
All because of love unspoken
