Right Between The Eyes

One-Sided

One side

Alone one side of a heart beats

Just as my heart

It speeds up in your presence

Wonder if yours does the same in mine

Must I be bound to the side-lines

Watching you with others?

I have no hold, no claim on you

Am I truly helpless?

Why is it my love is so strong?

So strong I could not even dare try

Love; estranging, silencing

I may not utter another word

For fear the truth may slip out

The secret of my one-sided love
