In shadows cast by timid moon,
I watch you dance with another's tune.
My heart aches, a silent plea,
For you to know what's inside of me.
Words unspoken, fears untold,
A love that's burning, yet kept on hold.
I see you smile, I see you laugh,
And I wonder if our paths will cross.
But fate's cruel hand has dealt its blow,
And I remain just a silent echo.
Afraid to speak, afraid to lose,
The chance to tell you, my love, my muse.
Each glance exchanged, each fleeting touch,
Leaves me yearning for so much.
But I dare not risk what we have now,
For fear of losing, I don't know how.
So I'll cherish these moments from afar,
Like a distant dream, like a falling star.
And though you may never hear me say,
Those three words I long to convey.
I'll find solace in the quiet night,
And hold onto hope with all my might.
For love, they say, has its own way,
Of finding light in the darkest day.
So go, my love, find happiness true,
Even if it's not with me, but with you.
I'll silently wish upon the stars above,
For you to know of this unspoken love.
And if someday our paths should meet,
I'll greet you with a love complete.
But until then, I'll let you go,
And cherish the love you'll never know.
