I miss him.
But he isn't mine to miss.
I want him.
But he isn't mine to want.
I think about him.
But he isn't mine to think about.

I want to hold him.

I want to kiss him.
But he isn't mine to kiss.
I want to caress him.
But he isn't mine to caress.

I want to talk to him.
But he isn't mine to converse with.
I want to look into his eyes,
But his beautiful stare isn't mine to admire.
I really want to be with him.
But he isn't mine to be with.

I love him.
But he isn't mine to love.
