in shadows deep i whisper your name my heart aches with a love untamed lost in the echoes of an unrequited longing a soul adrift in solitude belonging. i breathe your essence in every heartbeat's rhyme yet the bitter truth whispered by time you will never hold my love in your embrace leaving me stranded in a loveless space. i am a vessel adrift broken and lost in the vast expanse of a love tempest-tossed yearning for a glance, a touch, a smile but you remain beyond my reach all the while. so I wait in the silent shadows of love's silent rue a ghost of a lover pining for you my heart aching in the depths of despair for a love that will never be mine to share.
