I've never looked upon your face;
I do not know your name;
And in some unseen distant place,
I know you will remain
Forever kept apart from me
Across both space and time;
I hope someday these words you'll see,
By chance that you will find
Within this old and worn-out book
The fact so plain and true:
That all my life in vain I looked...
In vain I searched for you.
I'd sit beneath the moonlit skies
In summer's warm night air
And dream of looking in your eyes,
Of you beside me there;
And as I walked, in fantasy
I gently held your hand,
But in the moonlight next to me:
No one there did stand;
And if I could, I would have flown
Across all time and space
And left behind my world I'd known...
And you, my love, embrace.

TO MY UNSEEN LOVE
