HOW CAN I?

Have I never  understood,
what really love is?
Have I really not known,
the magic on the heart it does?

It's so easy to say "I'm in love",
it's an emotion much maligned.
Whatever else may be true or not,
but it's true that love is blind.

It'd probably be so easy,
to be quietly, and silently be there.
Never expressing your desire,
just friends, no other feelings to bare.

Should I have done so,
I ask my confused soul.
Should I have remained quiet,
not telling her that my heart she'd stole.

It is no doubt tough,
feelings of love to express.
But I think it's a crime,
to cause such an emotion to suppress.

Though at the very mention of her,
my eyes with tears blur.
I know she doesn't love me at all,
but how can I stop loving her?
