I enjoy being around you, but despise you at the same time

Because telling you how i feel, would be an unforgivable crime

Yet the pain of never knowing, cuts
deeper than a knife

How could I go on living through a lie disguised as life

If the feeling was ever mutual, you'd never let it show

For the fear of unrequited love seems too scary a fact to know

Like pure acid, my feelings for you burn me inside

Like a baby bird, these winds of pain,  alone i ride

Your eyes take me to a place only mentioned in books

Lush gardens, cool breezes, and babbling brooks

Like the fruit of the tree of good and evil, I am forbidden to partake,

The devil licks my ear, my resolve slowlys starts to crumble and break

I should let the fires of desire rise, and swallow me whole

Reduce me to ash, cast me into the wind, to be carried far away
For those who have experienced the pain of unrequited love
