Unspoken Love

A Poem by Aehr

She didn’t need anyone else

To always be by her shoulder

She could live alone for life

Wander alone in those fields forever

Stony hearts surrounded her

And afraid of them was she

She was contained to her own world

That was the best place for her to be

Little did she know, that out of those stones

One melted, just by her charming smile

The chasm of love was where he had fallen

He had left his own world far behind

But her walls were built so high

It was impossible to bring them down

To tell her that he loved her,

To crumble the barriers to the ground

She was so much more than just a face

And her big, innocent, green eyes

Her long straight golden hair

And her skin, as cold as ice

He longed to tell her what he felt

What his heart wanted to comprehend

He was a silent lover, and he’d always been

And she wasn’t even his friend

But what he never ever knew

Was that she longed for romance

A prince who could love her forever

And that he alone was under her glance

None of them ever spoke of their love

It was a mutual secret untold

And that was how it went on and on

Till both of them grew old

Now that they both are in heaven

Far away from the eyes of men

They’ve been said to get another chance

To try and confess their love again

Oh wow, Rhea! This piece is awesome :) I just love the flow of it, it's so cool! I really think it is a beautiful theme and very well titled (I say this EVERY time but with your writes it is so true!). The ending was exquisite. I love the way you described the girl to have blonde hair and green eyes, I could really imagine the girl as if her portrait was in front of me. Great write, keep writing!
