Hearts Yearning
by Elaine Mills

Taken with kind permission from Father's On-Line Library

His beauty astounds me. 
Though others think not.
Completely surrounds me.
Binds my heart in a knot.
          
His voice ever captivating.
Azure eyes with heart rending sight.
Still, I keep hesitating.
Seeing dark shadows in his might.
         
A gentle soul held deep within.
Encased in a shell of illusion.
One must look beneath the skin.
And see the real man, not the delusion.
         
Though I'll love him forever.
Someone he'll never see.
A fanciful, silent lover.
Dreaming of course, that it's me . . . 
     He loves.
