Sun-kissed lovers do tell me how How does it feel to share giggles and laughter with the person you love? What lies in your sorrow whenever you fight? I wish to know. They say it is better to love and have lost But I do not think this so. For love I did and lost I have, but I see in you things better than that. I loved her though she hardly looked my way. Our eyes never met more than twice from the friendly conversations we've had. She is kind though cold and frosty I dare say Not a single one can melt her frozen heart I chanced upon her more than once hoping that someday I might seize a chance Nothing is as harder to do than bare to her my feelings — true And coward that I was could only tell someone close to her I share Had I known this confidant held me in awe And the jealousy would pang her Would things have gone different? I will never know Resentment brought my friend to seek her and told my love of my feelings raw But my feelings held no sway my love coldly brushed them off To her they meant nothing — nothing more Crushed I was by this circumstance I longed to forget this unyielding desire Coupled by painful feelings of betrayal I grappled with the answer I denied I continued to look upon my love From a distance — far No longer do our eyes meet Our friendship suffered defeat. Now, only the scars remained, and she is now with another, her fate I bear this cruel destiny, this desire. So sun-kissed lovers, pray tell me now What does it feel to be with the one you love?
