Floating on a sea of silence

Deeper than the ocean floor
All my voiceless words are quiet
Locked behind a rusted door.

Thoughts of you, though never spoken
Fill my days and nights unknown.
All my aching hopes are broken,
Living out my life alone.

With Love, unrequited
Hope, overcome
Words left unspoken
Heart left undone.

As the sun would kiss the meadow
Trapped beneath the forest branch,
I would tell my sweet confession,
But I cannot take the chance.

With Love, unrequited
Hope, overcome
Words left unspoken
Heart left undone.

Love, unrequited
Hope, overcome
Words left unspoken
Heart left undone.

Always speaking, never talking
Unrequited heart aglow.
I will love you for a lifetime,
But you’ll never, ever know.
