Your eyes, they stare straight into my soul,
As if no secret of mine could ever stay whole.
It feels like I'm stripped of all I hide,
And yet, in your gaze, I find no reason to lie.When I look back, it's a vast ocean I see,
Deep and endless, pulling something from me.
Your soft voice, your cute glasses-so rare,
Traits I adore, though I wouldn't dare share.Your eyes pull me in, a force I can't fight,
And I find myself staring, lost in the sight.
But I can only admire you from afar,
Like a hopeless dream, like wishing on a star.This feeling I carry, a truth I can't show,
A love that defies what the world claims to know.
It's fine if they judge me, I've learned to endure,
But for you, I fear, their hate feels unsure.So I keep my distance, let my heart remain still,
Protecting you from a world so cruel.
Your eyes still haunt me, gentle and true,
A silent confession-I care for you.
