A poem about unrequited love.
I wrote you a love poem - But I was afraid to send it I bought you a wild rose - But I was afraid to give it And no one knew of my love, Except the night of a thousand stars That looked and laughed and sang, But I was afraid to listen Afraid you would not accept My humble offerings - Then time ravaged my body And you were gone But then I heard from a friend Who knew you, he said That you had loved me too, And that you were afraid to speak So you waited and waited and waited Till the lonely sea, Had swallowed up our names

This is a sweet and romantic poem. Just remember, that life is precious, and every moment counts. Do not let fear prevent you from expressing your interest or love for another person. It is painful and lonely when we have a heart full of love for another person, but we do not tell anyone about it at first. Do not let fear prevent you from loving. I remember waiting for someone that I truly loved and adored, but as time passed, I had lost my opportunity. Once again, you have captured my attention and my heart with your beautiful words!! You are inspiring to me!

Poignant and sad. Too bad. I hope it's not autobiographical.
