Across the hall, you see me and smile
The joy of the heavens is in your eyes
As my heart leaps out toward your feet
I realize you are far beyond my reach
For I see the distance that lies ahead
The miles and miles of words unsaid
Words that, had propriety let me speak
Would've told you what you mean to me
And strewn along those unspoken miles
An intense love from the depths of my mind
That I've not yet had the courage to feel
For fear I'll drown and gasp to breathe
So I pull my heart back just in time
And greet you only with a stoic smile
You walk away like the sun at the end of day
As I watch you from the twilight miles away
