In the depths of hope,
I said yes, waiting for love,
But he never asked.

Dreams spun like moonlight,
Promises whispered softly,
Yet no ring appeared.

Time stood still, frozen,
In the space between our words,
Aching for a vow.

Hope slipped through my grasp,
Like sand through an open palm,
Lost in the abyss.

I wore patience's cloak,
But the seasons changed, and still,
No question emerged.

Each passing day stung,
A reminder of what's lost,
A love left unclaimed.

Silent tears cascaded,
Unseen by his oblivious gaze,
Heartache held within.

Though the pain lingers,
I'll heal, and find a love true,
A proposal meant for me.
