ALLOW ME TO LOVE YOU FROM AFAR

allow me to love you from far

Our connection transcends fate; it's an unexplainable force.
Though it led us to a dead end, I can't let go.
I've realized I can never love another like I love you.
This love controls me, and I'm powerless against it.

Once, I believed you were my destiny.
Now, I see that our paths diverge.
You seek an exit, while I long to hold on.
If you're my destiny, then I'm lost without you.
Any other fate seems empty.

My heart remains yours, and the love within endures.
The more you pull away, the stronger it burns.
If this is our inevitable end, I accept it.
But know that my next partner will receive only my body;
My heart will forever belong to you.

It was crucial for you to know how I feel.
Please don't forget me as you move on.
When our paths cross, don't avoid me.
A simple greeting would soothe my longing heart.
Allow me to love you from afar.
