The hands I will never hold
The face I will never touch
I wish I could be more bold
If only I could have told you how much . . .
You could never have known
I have never been able to express
The feelings I have never shown
I wish my mind wasn't such a mess
Your beauty, intimidating
Your laugh, contagious
Your eyes, captivating
I wish I was more courageous
My secret hides within me
I imagine letting it go
I wish I was able to be
A man and let my heart show
Unable to act
I feel forever cursed
It seems that is a fact
I know silent wishes cannot be answered
