From the shadows...

Have you ever loved someone so much that your heart constantly calls out his name?
your heart is madly beating,making it hard to breathe and it only settles when your eyes finally embraces his frame,
This is a love story,of immense love that was conceived from the shadows,
In a world where only you and i are real figures...in my dreams,
Many are the times when i dared to speak and reveal to you my feelings,
but my principles as a lady wouldn't let me act stupid,
so i kept silent and continued loving you from the shadows,

I painfully witnessed as women walked in and out of your heart and left you damaged,
but there was nothing i could do,
because friendship is the place you accorded me in your life,
and i accept it as long as im still close to you,
I know you'll feel me love you from the shadows.

I was elated, the day our eyes finally kissed,
because i was floating,and that feeling is great,
because for the first time,my lips whispered love to yours
and everyone around us were just shadows,
I was surprised,when our hearts beat in melodious rhythms,
because i never thought you'd feel love for me,
but when you woke up,i realized it was too good to be true,
that i had a chance to embrace the man i loved in the shadows forever.

From the shadows,is where i am doomed to love you,
and God knows loving like this ain't easy,
If all the chairs in this dinner could speak,
they would testify how many times i interviewed guys who applied to take your place in my life,
but my heart chooses you...i wish you knew.
From the shadows is where i will always love you,
It ain't easy but my heart is willing,
Ask time,she's my witness she can testify,
That three years later my heart beats for you.

From The Shadows.
