To be longed for

To be longed for, Oh, to be wanted. To be craved, to be needed, To be the answer before the question is breathed. To be compulsory, To be everything you've ever asked for. To fill your heart, to be enough. Loving but never loved, Giving but never given. To be the sun, yet chased by the moon, To be the tide, yet never the shore. To whisper love into empty echoes, To pour and pour—till there's nothing more. To trace your name on fogged-up glass, Only to watch it disappear too fast. To reach for hands that slip like shadows, To speak of love no one can hear . To be the warmth in a world that stays cold, To write a love letter no one will hold. To be a melody hummed but never sung, To taste forever on someone else’s tongue. To bloom in the dark, unseen, unsought, A ghost of a dream, a love forgot.
