Wish for Love
by Erick L. Wright

I lie here and think of you,
Wondering if my dreams can come true.

It's A special Dream, a secret hoped for wish,
I'm lying here all alone drowning in your bliss.

It all started as a high school fling,
I never imagined my love would ever cling.

We pass in the halls, smile and say hey,
I never told you your smile was the highlight of my day

I can't seem to get up the courage to approach you and talk,
I just pass you by with my head hung low and continue to walk.

You've stolen my heart and soul from underneath my feet,
When we finally talk, my words get cluttered, it gets hard to speak.
The sight of you makes my knees shake and feel weak.

My love for you is still unspoken, it grows stronger through the years.
The Truth stays hidden all because of fear.

Through the dawn of day and dusk of night,
The time we spend together makes it all feel so right.

Fear limits me to speak the compassion I feel,
because I know you won't understand it's real.

If I tell you now and tell you true,
Promise not to laugh when I say I have always been in love with you.
