1 - Whispers of Desire

In the studio's quiet, Autumn stole a glance,

At Cadence, lost in his colorful dance.

With each brushstroke, a secret romance,

A playful longing, she dared to enhance.

She sighed with a hint of jest in the air,

Why couldn't she muster the courage to dare?

To chat, to charm, to bridge the gap with flair,

Instead, she just borrowed a brush with care.

Cadence, with his locks of midnight hue,

Skin kissed by the sun, eyes ocean blue,

He captivated her, that much was true,

In his magnetic presence, her heart ached anew.

Beside her, a painting of her feline friend,

In a pot of gold, a nap without end.

Oh, to be like the cat, to boldly contend,

For Cadence's heart, around which she'd bend.

But she stayed silent, her wishes concealed,

In the playful silence, her heart revealed.

A whimsical secret, it joyfully squealed,

In the studio's quiet, love's game was sealed.

2 - Unrequited Blossoms

Autumn's brush danced upon the canvas,

A flower blooming beside a steadfast tree.

She longed for Cadence's gaze, but alas,

He remained oblivious, never looking to see.

Each stroke of paint, a silent plea,

For acknowledgment, a fleeting chance.

But Cadence's eyes, they never found she,

Lost in another's captivating glance.
