Doomed

If only you could see how much I love you, then it would all be so much easier. But I wait for some sign, some time that may never come. And the waiting swells such a pain inside of me. Sometimes I feel like I could risk all my chances for present and future simply to let go of my secret love. But I keep on waiting in agony. And if the mere thought of you were not enough, my torment is increased tenfold whenever I see you. Just to gaze at you fulfills my wildest dreams. Every time I see you my mind begins to spin and my heart flutters wildly. I am reminded of storybook romances and tell myself that this cannot be happening to me. But my emotions betray logic and I am lost. I am doomed forever to the most wonderful of fates. I am in love with you.
