From 2004…with love

I cherished a maiden
With every fiber of my being
Surrendered my soul
Yet received naught
So I'll inscribe these words
For when her eyes may wander
She'll comprehend that a heart was captured
Indeed, I genuinely adored her

I plunged into the depths of love
Though her gaze never met mine
I endeavored to reveal
Whispered my desire to truly know her
Not merely to embrace
But to cherish

I tumbled into affection
With noble aspirations
Contemplated her
Pure musings

I descended into love
Unaware of my destiny
Yet trusting in the power of amour
Alas, it appears it wasn't sufficient
For now, I must journey forth without her by my side
