Just out of reach

I woke up one day to a love so deep.
A hopeless lust that chases my sleep.
Since that dawn, I've drifted in sorrow.
A heart full of dreams with no hope for tomorrow. .

When we meet, my breath goes still.
A tide of feelings againts my will.
I fight the tide, but gosh, the swell.
Your laugh rings like a distant bell.

I want to shout, to tear apart
This secret love that haunts my heart.
Yet better to love and feel the stings.
Than face the void your absence brings.

I've tried to forget to cast aside.
But in your eyes the truth won't hide.
I'm lost in love with what I can't attain.
An endless cycle of joy and pain.

But in this agony, I find a strange peace.
A flicker of hope that will never cease.
Loving you fiercely, though it tears me apart,
It is the only thing that whispers I'm alive in my heart.

You are the breath that ignites my soul's fire.
An affecting melody, my deepest desire.

You are the flame I cannot touch.
A distant star that aches so much.
Forever close, yet miles away.
In this love's grip I choose to stay.
