I've watched you from afar
A wish on a star
I've held this secret close to me
A quiet, fragile melody
Your eyes—they soften when they meet mine
Like the quiet after a storm, so divine
Your fire would fiercely burn
But for me, your rage would always turn
I never asked, yet you always knew
How to calm my storm, how to see me through
You never flattered, never played
But in every gesture, your love was laid
You stood beside me when darkness fell
You lifted me when I couldn't tell
In every glance, I see the truth
That in the silence you care for me, too
You are the one I can't let go
I love you more than you could know
I realized too late, yet here I stand
Wishing you'd take this heart in your hand
***
I'm ready now, come what may,
to tell you what I long to say.
