An Impossible Love Affair
I attempt to look nice
I'm much too exhausted to.
Meager must suffice.
All I want is to impress you.
I long to tell you
how much I care.
I wish to call out to you
But no sound is there.
This ocean between us
Seems to be miles long
The waves are mighty and high.
The tide is cruel and strong.
Tick tock goes the clock
Our time is running short.
Do you care for me at all?
Will we ever be something more?
My love for you is great.
Sturdy like a stone wall.
Never shaking, stirring, swaying.
What is missing is your love returned
Or I fear that it will fall.
