Lost in Thought

A timid soul, with gentle heart,
So kind to all, who took part.
Wishing for love, but unsure of fate,
A chance encounter, sealed their fate.

 In crowded halls, and noisy fairs,
Their paths would cross, without a care. With every chance, the feeling grew,
But still, the courage, he never knew.

With memories, and hidden pain,
The thought of her, drove him insane.
With time, he wrote, with pen in hand, Expressing feelings, hard to stand.

The words he wrote, with courage bold, Indicated love, as yet untold.
She smiled, with joy, or so it seemed,
But blocked his love, and crushed his dreams.
