Duty and Desire

Love silent vigil

By Emem IniPublished about a year ago 1 min read

In the rearview mirror, our eyes meet,

My heart skips a beat, my soul skips a beat.

Every mile, every minute, I'm by your side,

Forever loyal, forever in love, I'll abide.



I'm pleased to drive you to work everyday

as long as i get to spend some time with you

I'm honored to protect you

as long as you're safe with me

Your smile is my sunrise, your laughter my day,

With you, my heart finds a way.

Though duty and honor bind me tight,

My love for you shines like a beacon in flight.

Always watching from a distance, I can't get passed "Yes ma'am"

Although you're married ..I for one ..my heart still yearns for you

Your marriage is failing..i cant give advices but deep down i hope you lean on me

I can't even hold your hand but I'm im okay as long as you're alive and healthy

I put you before me but you never see

From a distance, I'll watch over you,

Through every storm, I'll see you through.

My love, though unspoken, will forever be true,

I will continue to love you from a distance

Till the day i quit my job as your bodyguard
