My breath somehow forsakes me
It will not whisper your name
My heart says I'm unworthy
It cannot ignite this flame

My soul cries out for recoginition
But my lips won't let me smile
Tempted by your heavenly beauty
But captive, to denial

My dreams, filled with your vision
I dare not close my eyes
Everytime you pass me by
Another piece of me dies

I am but a simple man
And you, a goddess of desire
A treasure meant to intice my soul
That I shall never aquire

How much longer must I suffer
How long will my soul beseech
Alas, I turn and walk away
For you're simply out of reach
