The Raven and the Dove
An unlikely pair we'd be
 You and me 
 A hopeless love from the start
 A sweet soul that unknowingly caught my heart
 
 Clueless and blissfully unaware
 A stab of jealousy here and there
 My love, a lark longing to be free
 Like a pair of doves resting in a tree
 
 A slight gesture and I'm there
 For you, I'd follow anywhere
 I'd have no conditions
 Only a single proposition
 
 For if there ever was a love
 As hopeless a love as my love, the doves
 Should weep tears of empathy
 For my love is forbidden- forbidden by me
 
 Quick witted and always in the know 
 Odd quirks that only you show
 Soft eyes 
 That never fail to melt my heart of ice
 
 Words unsaid, stanzas unwritten 
 A love unbidden
 But not unwanted. It's a fire that consumes me
 My heart, an inmate that longs to be set free
 
 So use me!
 Bruise me!
 Overwhelm me with your touch 
 You'd never become too much...
 
 Night and day
 That's what they'd say
 My love for you would perservere 
 And I'll always be here 
 
 A constant throbbing 
 And now I'm sobbing 
 For, never will I know your love
 Yet, I'll still fly,
 Still try
 A raven in a flock of doves
