I will never love anybody
The way I have loved you
The purity of our bond
Is beyond social comprehension 

Whatever we have
Had 
Stays between these academic doors
Even if I am chained in matrimony 
I will treasure the moments we have weaved, forever
Saying so, she kissed my forehead 
And left 

Choked with emotions
I felt my soul leaving with her
She was my English teacher 
The love that blossomed 
Between our meaningful silences 
While our eyes caressed each other
Was purity unparalleled 

The slight graze her hand sent my heart racing 
Even if we were drawn towards each other
In spite of the age crevice 
We never confessed

Some feelings don't need expression 
Just felt
In silence
