Immortal

My heart beats fast, my palms are sweaty,
Every time I see you, I'm feeling unsteady
You're the one I dream of day and night,
But my love for you remains out of sight.

My mind does battle, the heart in pain
As it tries to accept and not love in vain
But still, my heart aches, with every beat
For the love, it cannot meet

I've tried to show you how I feel,
But my attempts always seem to fail.
I long for you to hold me close,
But I'm left with nothing but a heart that's broke.

My love blooms, but cannot thrive
It's a pain that will forever survive
A wound that cannot heal or close
As the love in my heart forever glows

I know that you don't feel the same,
And yet I'm still the one to blame.
I can't help how I feel inside,
But I know I must swallow my pride.

So I'll love you from afar,
And hold on to this love like a shining star.
As even though it's unrequited,
My love for you will never be uninvited.
