The Evening Jewel

A Distant Admiration

By TJ DecenaPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Enclosed within is a burning passion I dare not show

Could you be another stream of tears; a scar of tomorrow?

Left uncertain inside, yet my facade deceives

Illuminate my darkness with just a flash of your smile

Pursuing a star is far from my grasp, that is why I chose to admire you from afar

Stubborn is this traveler’s heart, so free and reckless

Etched in this soul is a love that is never returned, yet it is eternally yours, distant and burning bright

Acrostic
