Heart's Desire



A child grows into a man

friendship blooms to passion

And I am lost

for my love would destroy him



Whenever he whispers "Padme"

my heart breaks anew

What I see in his eyes

slowly kills me, makes my soul die



Why couldn't we have remained

simple friends, nothing more?

For the same reason we could not

remain children forever more



I'd rather have his hate,

I'd rather he despise me

His love will destroy him

His love would destroy me



But would living a lie be

as bad as I imagine?

Nothing can be as painful

as loving him in silence

Nothing.
