I chose to admire you from a distance;

For from a distance your little

imperfections go unnoticed. 

 

I chose to look at you in the darkness; 

For in the darkness you shine the brightest. 

 

I chose to love you in silence;

For in silence i can decipher your beauty. 

 

I chose to love you in a crowd;

For in a crowd you stand out. 

 

I chose to cherish you alone;

For when I'm alone there is no one to mock me. 

 

I chose to hold you in my eyes;

For my gaze cause you no harm. 

 

I chose to love you in my thoughts;

For in my thoughts you have no end. 

 

I chose to adore you in my dreams;

For in my dreams I find no rejection.
