My heart beating nervously
each time you are near-
Waiting with excitement
for the next time you are here.
Counting down the days
until I see you again-
Knowing in my heart I feel
you're more than just a friend.
The many times together
brings happiness inside-
For each time you are here with me
this love is hard to hide.
Until the next time, just know
this love I feel is true-
And if it takes a lifetime
I'll be here waiting for you.

This sadness taken over me
overcome by what is real-
For what is true is not exactly
what I want nor what I feel.
The awareness of this reality
do I fight or let it go?
Should I accept a life that can never be
even if I love him so?

I can't describe what I'm feeling
or express what I truly feel-
Can't put these feelings in writing
But I know what I feel is real.

The evolution of this infatuation
which transforms so rapidly-
These unexpected changes in my life
has made me so happy.

Each day becomes so difficult
to hide this happiness-
To tell the truth of this perfect love
that would have others envious.

Still I can't describe these feelings
that is slowly growing strong-
For each day I'm coming to realize
that you and I belong.

I can't explain this feeling
this unexpected pain-
An actualization of reality
that is driving us insane.
If only a few years earlier
you've came into my life-
To experience the love you gave me
and our happiness was rife.
But why does time matter
in this unexpected romance?
If it's love that we're both feeling
should we dare to take a chance?
Do we disrupt the lives we're living
so we no longer have to lie-
To finally be together freely
and no longer have to hide?

My heart has never
felt this way before-
Never missed someone so much
never wanted someone more.

My life has never
been so very bright-
Never filled with such happiness
that brings sunshine in the night.

My days have never
been consistently happy-
Never felt a life so complete
until you came here with me.

My heart has never
felt something so true-
Never knew the meaning of happiness
until I met you.

So many days without you
and this I want to say-
I miss you so much, my secret love
I've missed you everyday.

Remembering your arms around me
and that smile on your face-
The giddiness before our goodbyes
and the warmth in your embrace.

The many days that's passed us
it is you I've been thinking of-
Until the day we meet again-
I'll miss you so, my secret love.

A day that would seem so happy
made a change for the worse-
Turned the days back into gray skies
for that day became a curse.

The quietness increases
the coldness grows inside-
The happiness is diminishing
and the pain can't seem to hide.

The obvious, but subtle changes
that soon you'll go away-
Those days are now just memories
of what we had yesterday.
