Not Sure, Nor Hopeful

The girl observes from afar, unsure of his intention,

thinking his distance is a sign of rejection.

 

In the shadow of his eyes, she sought a spark,

but his persistent indifference just left her in the dark. 

 

Her heart, once upon a time hopeful, 

now weighed by a deep blue sorrow.

As he always turned away, she faced a bleak tomorrow.

 

A secret admirer's love wilted in silence.
