I sit here in the corner...
All alone…waiting...
For what, I wonder?
I hear your labored breathing; I can smell your scent.
I know you are looking for me,
But I don’t want to be found.
What have I done for you to shame me so?
If loving you with all my soul is a crime,
May I be tried in the highest court.
Nothing you say will make me forgive you,
Nothing you do will wipe away the memory.
You know not the pain I feel.
You think I’m naive.
I sit here in the corner,
Hoping you will pass me by,
I’m all alone here...Waiting... for what??
I hear you calling me,
I can see your shadow on the other side.
I cannot let you burn me up, nor can I resist you.
No mere human can stand in a fire and not be consumed.
And how can you understand, my dear?
How will I ever live with you and be happy,
Now I know that you were never mine,
And even though I crave for it,
It shall never be.
