You stand in a light I cannot reach, a flame too close, yet far from touch. The world carves space between our hands, though every glance still says too much.
Your laughter lingers—soft as rain, a melody I'm not allowed to keep. I turn away, but in the silence, your shadow follows me through sleep.
Fate is cruel in how it weaves, binding hearts yet keeping them apart. I hold the weight of what can't be, an unspoken ache within my heart.
So I'll love you in the quiet ways— a whispered prayer, a hidden song. A tender truth I'll never speak: to love you feels both right and wrong.\n\nJohn Walker
