You never knew
The torch I held for you
I tried to hold your gaze
But failed,
I tried to send you
Knowing looks
But all the while
I was invisible to you
Just a friend
To lean on.
And as time went by
I knew that it was hopeless
You would never look at me
The way I looked at you..
So words were unspoken
And when you went away
I cried
Thinking of what could have been.
