In the realm of dreams where hearts intertwine,

A girl's tale of love frozen in time, divine.

At just eight years old, her heart did sense

A crush, a love immense, a feeling so intense.

For a decade, she kept her affection near,

Watching him from afar with a silent cheer.

Through life's twists and turns as days flew by,

Her love for him never wavered, never die.

He was the sun, she the moon's soft glow,

Unaware of her feelings that continued to grow.

From a distance, she admired his grace,

Her heart yearning for a glimpse of his face.

But fate had its way, time slipped away,

The boy oblivious to her heart's sway.

She continued to watch, her feelings deep,

Hoping one day her love he would keep.

Now at eighteen, a woman grown wise,

Her feelings for him hidden beneath disguise.

She wonders if it's time to let them go,

To find her path, to let her feelings show.

Love's journey is full of twists and bends,

At times unreciprocated, the heart mends.

She'll hold onto the memories, the love she felt,

Hoping someday his heart will melt.

To the girls/boys who's carried a crush for long years,

May your heart find peace, release your fears.

For love knows no bounds, transcends time,

One day, your love tale may finally chime.
