I reached out to touch you with words soft and entreating, <br /> So close I felt that you could hear how fast my heart was beating. <br /> The setting sun had rendez vous with twilights early gleam and slowly <br /> intermingled to form a golden beam that shone warm through the window, clothing <br /> us in its light, Now was the time to ask you, now the time was right! <br /> I touched you gently, "How do you feel", Me dear, "You are the best". <br /> "I want to share with you my joy the happiness in my life , I've finally asked <br /> the one I love, today to be my wife" <br /> My heartbeat slowed, my senses swirled, and I could barely see, <br /> Through trembling lips I wished him joy, with his bride- to -be.<br /><br />Ann Murrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/unrequited-love-4/
