In shadows cast by moon\'s gentle light,
A tale unfolds, both sweet and contrite,
A saga of hearts, unbalanced and free,
Bound by the chains of one-sided decree.
A solitary soul, a lover\'s lament,
Longing for a touch, affection, intent,
But destiny\'s hand plays a cruel charade,
Leaving one heart to wander, dismayed.
Unrequited whispers, unheard, they fade,
The depths of emotion, in silence, they wade,
One heart beats loudly, while the other remains,
In a realm of indifference, where love wanes.
The admirer\'s gaze, a delicate art,
Memorizing moments, etching them in heart,
But the beloved\'s eyes, they never return,
A symphony of longing, destined to yearn.
Every stolen glance, a treasured treasure,
Unseen by the one who brings love\'s measure,
The giver of affection, a selfless soul,
Revels in a love that remains untold.
Through seasons of hope, and seasons of pain,
The heart persists, though love seems in vain,
For even unrequited, love\'s flame does burn,
A testament to passion, to lessons learned.
In the depths of unreciprocated desire,
Blossoms resilience, love\'s sacred fire,
For one-sided love is a testament rare,
To the depths of our hearts, and the courage we bear.
So let us celebrate these souls, unbowed,
Whose love, unreturned, forever allowed,
For in one-sided love, we find strength anew,
A tribute to hearts that dare to pursue.
