I love you from afar...
Dedicated to Nilüfer

I LOVE YOU FROM AFAR
I love you from afar
without smelling your scent
without hearing your voice
without touching your face
<3 <3 <3
I love you from afar
without holding your hand
without feeling the beat of your heart
without getting lost in your eyes
<3 <3 <3
I love you from afar
without wiping your tears
without your smile
without singing together
<3 <3 <3
I love you from afar
without breaking
without spilling over
without you seeing my sadness
<3 <3 <3
I love you from afar
Every word I want to say to you
I stop it by tearing it apart on my tongue
My words are falling drop by drop
on an innocent white page
I bleed ink
made of unsaid words
I dare not speak any longer
because you do not love me
like that
but I love you
from afar and I always will.
