Hidden Hearts

Occluded from her, as the sun sets,
we share the quiet night.
These hidden hearts
will eventually come into light.
As the sun greets us
once again,
my heart knows
this is one it can't win,

But why are you the epitomy of my sincerity?
In all honesty, I wish for some clarity
to guide your rationality
so that you could see that you simply belong with me.
And yet, you share your warmth with her,
but all I am able to share in are stolen smiles,
and all the while, I'm hoping to pass this trial.

My heart has a verdict--knowingly guilty,
yet innocent in its claim,
yours is the name
it dwells on at night,
and what a shame that I must rid you from my sight...
For with one more stolen glance,
I could fall too deep,
deep into an abyss of a love I can't keep.
