Love Into Art

source Andrew Ty

As fish long to walk on the shore,

and men yearn to take to the sky,

so has your radiant glow

always captured

my eye.

So far out of reach as you are,

I have long hid my love from afar,

as the day turns away from the moon,

and the sun from

a star.

All these years I have loved your bright heart,

though we've lived worlds and lifetimes apart.

Though you might never know

love that I'll never show,

I have turned loving you

into art.
