Nobody knows...

Endless emotion without a notion,

Feelings abound grow and confound,
Nobody knows because nothing shows.

Dare not to see what the outcome will be,

Drifting in time surreal and sublime,
Nobody knows because nothing shows.

Love and devotion thick like a potion,

Joy mixed with sorrow held for tomorrow,
Nobody knows because nothing shows.

The future is there, one sided and bare,
No love to return, no one must dare,
Nobody knows because nothing shows.

Innocent and shy, high as the sky,

A breeze blows by, a look from your eye,
Nobody knows because nothing shows.

Love blooms as a tear with a deeply held fear,

Smoke and spirits in the air, destined never to be a pair,

Nobody knows because nothing shows.

Sail the seas with waves that bend, fearing the fantasy has to end,

Never to know the light of day, nothing real in a tangible way.
Nobody knows because nothing shows.
