Cliches of feelings so unrequited.

When I first saw you,
I didn't think too much of it
As the weeks passed,
you had to be friendly, engaging, funny
Unknowingly little by little I fell under your spell
Even jokingly telling a friend
that heaven was by my side
Little did I know
how true that is now


A misunderstanding drove u away,
A misunderstanding brought you back,
does 2 wrongs make a right?
I don't know but it feels right,


When you told me you did not want me to misunderstand
I railed at the fates for letting me meet you
Better to have remained in the dark
then to have an ache in my heart
You being so close yet so far
the cliches abound more and more


As I gazed into your eyes,
I felt time standing still
your bewitching gaze, your soulful eyes
dazzling smile, michevious glint,
I felt myself being drawn in
and be lost forever


Fearful I broke the gaze,
Afraid that I will never break free
of the feelings that formed a haze
the depth of which fits to a tee


The one whom I may never have
For you are in love with another
And so I must be thankful
That I can be near and useful


There is a song that bemoans
of the love that was still-born
The one I love is not my lover they sing
that song reminds me of my being
and fills me with a sense of longing
of what might be so fulfilling


to quote from one other,
I say this without hope or intent or any other
but you are the perfect one for me
shared interest,your warm nature,
would I find another
I do not know any better


When would it be my time
when the bells will chime
And i find my heaven for eternal to keep
