love unrequited

In Love With Thee

It was love unrequited, your love was untrue.
Never before had I known love so blue.
Lowly and humble and youthful was I ...
once I sang a song, loved you - that's why.
Visible signs were beginning to show ~
eyes always crying when you answered "no".
Waking or sleeping this love filled my mind.
In a state of obsession, the hopeless kind.
To be close to you each day I would pray ~
hoping your doubts would soon poass away.
Taunt me and tease me but say "yes" my love,
higher and higher we could
fly up above, endless waves of rapture could
set me aglow ...
ever in love with the one who says "no."
