Unrequited Love

I know not why my heart wants you.
There are so many here close to me.
They ask me out. They are good men.
Men who would treat me to a wonderful life.
But my heart and mind aches for you.
Some say it is me keeping love at a distance.
I wonder if it is the heart knowing what it wants.
It speaks and I listen.
I know not how to bring you to me.
If I told you would you meet me half way.
I fear not so I hunger in silence.
With the sound of my hungry heart echoing.

With the sound of my hungry heart echoing...now, that's Unrequited Love! It's always good to listen to your heart. It will know when it finds the good man that is also the right man.
