A Silent Lament

In the shadowy quiet of a wistful night
A heart beats in loneliness
Trapped in the arms of love’s enduring pain
It struggles with an unspoken plight


Eyes that speak what lips can’t tell
A galaxy of longing in stolen glances
In the vastness of an unspoken plight
From a heart where sorrow does dwell


Beneath the guise of fake indifference, it lies
A love unclaimed, a story untold
Encased in a maze of secrets
Unveiled emotions beneath cloudy skies


Lost in the caves of unspoken desires
A passion that can never be
A song unsung, a heart unbound
The silence of a love that forever retires


In quiet corners where confessions lie
A love’s fragile ember burns
A candle to a heart’s melancholy
That forever cries to the sky


A love entwined in a dance of unclaimed affection
One that blooms unseen, hiding in the shade
A love that can never be declared
A tale of hearts unconnected.
