As I light the candle,
for an intiment dinner for two.
My hand trembles,
as my thoughts are only of you.

As I tell him,
to come and see.
I realize,
this isn't who I want it to be.

As I look across the table,
in the dim candle light.
My eyes see a face,
my heart cries "this isn't right"

Soft music, candles,
dinner for two.
A romantic evening,
now my body aches for you.

I try to show him,
how much I care.
As my hand touches his body,
I realize I am not being fair.

A song breaks the silence,
brings a tear.
My heart fills with love,
no more room for fear.

I got up,
and walked away.
My love won't be denied,
another day.

Tonight my life,
will finally start.
Free to say "I love you",
with all my heart.

There was a time,
you wanted me.
A time we knew,
our love couldn't be.

Was it real,
or just words, wispered in the night.
To forget the days,
as our bodies joined with such delight.

(big angel hugs) Unrequited love is truly toxic, sweet friend, love should always deserve to be expessed and declared to the world, God Bless You, I send healing angel hugs your way, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!
