Admiring you from afar,
Loving you in secret
and my prayers to keep
you in the safety of my dreams.
For you are a rare Gem
I gazed for what seems
like a second, too fearful
for speaking and too nervous for approaching.
For you are a rare Gem
My words escape me
yet they flourish from a
page, but maybe it’s not
yet my season
With my love farmenting with
age, then I guess it must wait.
For you are a rare Gem
I confess I must say,
you are my Star and I’m
just a glimmer in the
Galaxy of your existence
which goes unnoticed.
From a distance drawn
by your deen and modesty
I yearn so long for you.
Because me without
you is like a writer with
no words.
Yet still you are a rare
Gem and mine to cherish.
Yours sincerely
Secret Admirer
