Romeo tells of the love <br />in his heart for a lady fair. <br /> <br />Every moment of every day <br />I longed to see her come my way <br />To watch the breeze caress her hair <br />And see the colour she might wear. <br /> <br />Her beauty and her special grace, <br />The way she moved - her lovely face <br />Were forever on my mind, <br />'Obsession' of the rarest kind. <br /> <br />On waking and at eventide <br />My feelings could not be denied. <br />Her snow-white skin and gentle style <br />Did my foolish heart beguile. <br /> <br />I loved her madly, passionately; <br />But fear her love was not for me. <br />So the secret in my soul I keep <br />Love so strong...love so deep. <br /> <br />For how long will this feeling last? <br />I must go, and leave the past. <br />Or love will bring me to my knees <br />Always tearful and ill at ease. <br /> <br />I hope, with time, I may forget <br />And even wish we'd never met. <br />A new dawn waits, a new day breaks. <br />'The end of love and sad heartaches'.<br /><br />Joyce Hemsley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unrequited-love-24/
