Each day I never fail to gaze upon your light; “An angel from above,” my lips confess in quiet delight. With reason after reason, I find ways to draw near – In dreams and whispered wishes, I long to keep you here. Your presence stirs a softness I can scarcely understand, A pull as gentle as twilight, as warm as a guiding hand. You walk, and colors brighten; you speak and sorrows fade – In you, I see the poetry that life itself has made. For so long I have wished to reveal the feelings that I bear, Yet a trembling fear within me keeps my heart from laying bare. I rehearse the words in silence, but they falter on my tongue – A love too bright, too fragile, too deep to leave unsung. So, I bury every heartbeat, let these aching truths subside, I fold them into shadows where my quiet hopes can hide. For never can I shout it, though every breath feels true – My secret adoration, my hidden love for you.

Each day I never fail to gaze upon your light; “An angel from above,” my lips confess in quiet delight. With reason after reason, I find ways to draw near – In dreams and whispered wishes, I long to keep you here. Your presence stirs a softness I can scarcely understand, A pull as gentle as twilight, as warm as a guiding hand. You walk, and colors brighten; you speak and sorrows fade – In you, I see the poetry that life itself has made. For so long I have wished to reveal the feelings that I bear, Yet a trembling fear within me keeps my heart from laying bare. I rehearse the words in silence, but they falter on my tongue – A love too bright, too fragile, too deep to leave unsung. So, I bury every heartbeat, let these aching truths subside, I fold them into shadows where my quiet hopes can hide. For never can I shout it, though every breath feels true – My secret adoration, my hidden love for you.
I wrote this poem way back in 2019. That time, I was crushing on my coworker but I had no courage to tell her. Just today, I edited this poem to improve its flow and to add emotions compared to the original draft.
