Whispers of the Heart

In shadows cast by flickering light,

A shy girl's heart begins its flight.

Her gaze, a silent serenade,

But to him, she's just a shade.

With timid steps, she draws near,

Her whispered dreams, he cannot hear.

In every glance, a silent plea,

But to him, she's a mystery.

Her heart beats loud, a symphony,

But to him, she's a distant memory.

In her eyes, a world untold,

But to him, she's merely a fold.

Yet still she dreams, in quiet night,

Of catching glimpses of his light.

Though her love remains unspoken,

In her heart, the bond unbroken.

For love, it knows no bounds, they say,

And in her heart, it finds a way.

Though he may see her as a child,

Her love for him, forever wild.

So she'll keep her secret close,

As love's sweet song softly flows.

And though he may never see,

In her heart, he'll always be.
