Unrequited Love

Oceanic eyes they tortured me.
Your stare pierced my soul.
(I observed your passion.)
Those full lips teased me.
Your smile it whispered secrets.
(My desire was to discover you.)
Your cologne intoxicated me.
Your thoughts seduced me.
(I saw perfection in your flaws.)
Your words lied to my ears.
Your kiss lied to my heart.
(Yet I still wanted you.)
You left me suspended in
the mystery of you.
(Broken and alone.)
My soul trapped in yours.
You stole all of me.
(I've been forever wronged.)
