Unvoiced Thirst

In quiet moments beside her, I cautiously drew near,
Unaware she’d sense my presence, her perception crystal clear.
Her gaze, like spears of lightning, penetrated my core,
Leaving me dumbfounded, unable to meet her eyes once more.

My heart raced wildly, uncertain if it was a ruse,
Her eyes, a gentle furnace, left me perplexed and confused.
As minutes turned to hours, my longing grew profound,
But I dared not glance upward, my gaze tethered to the ground.

Yet, the unspoken tension between us seemed to grow,
A connection, an allure, impossible to forgo.
In the stillness of that moment, an unspoken tale,
Where hearts danced to the rhythm of an invisible trail.

Should I break this silence, or let it linger on,
Unveil the emotions we share, in shadows they’ve withdrawn?
In that profound stillness, our destiny remains unsure,
Two souls bound by unspoken words, a deep allure.
