Their love and affection bloomed over time.
It began by subtle glances turning into longing stares.
Gentle brushes to holding hands.
They tried to deny their feelings but each day it grew.
They tried to hide it but everyone knew.
In the process to deny it, they pushed each other away,
But in the end they could not bare to be apart.
They lied to each other saying "It could never be," but everyone could easily see.
They needed each other like ink, pen & papper, or a boat needed the sea.
