Unrequited

Unrequited

I’m crying for you
And I can’t stop the tears.
I’m crying for you,
And have been for years.

My heart aches for you
Knowing it will never be whole.
My heart aches for you,
Impossible to console.

My soul calls to you
Needing to feel complete.
My soul calls to you
As I kneel at your feet.

My body craves your warmth
When I’m alone at night.
My body craves your warmth,
With a need to hold you tight.

My mind tries to forget
What it’s like to lay with you.
My mind tries to forget
To wish that you will love me too.

When all is said and done,
I know I’ll lose this race.
But when I go to sleep at night,
I’ll always see your face.
