Unspoken Love

In the realm where truths are bared, they say, "Eyes unveil what words betray". But mine, a tale of silent woe, Left unspoken, unable to show. Why couldn't you decode my silent plea, Or grasp the love my eyes set free? Why couldn't you unravel the secrets they held, Or sense the love in their depths, silently compelled? As they sparkled with affection at the sight of you, Your gaze wandered past, failing to construe. In every glance, a love sincere, Yet you turned away, unable to hear. Was it my fault, this love unclaimed, That lingered in shadows, unnamed? Yes, I confess, the fault lies with me, For loving you unrequitedly, endlessly. Though I strive to move forward, to forge a new start, Your eyes remain my anchor, tearing me apart. In their depths, I find myself endlessly bound, Drowning in the love that you never found.
