Far Beyond

She watches from far away
with eyes of deepest warmth
though I cannot see her face
I feel the gentle emotion
she may barely notice my heart
that beats so softly for her
but she will feel my soul
a whisper on the passing breeze.

She lives behind a flimsy veil
it hides nothing that matters
her thoughts are conveyed
through those mahogany eyes
is that her heartbeat I hear
or blood rushing past my ears
I long for her to reveal
her innermost hopes and desires.
