Silent anticipation tears her heart
Burning embers blind her sight
His tears, her only fears
Confusion, a struggle of heart and mind
Thoughts of life and death, of loss and pain
A pain stronger than any wound spreads
A burning moves until nothing can stop
The tears, so real and new, that flow like rivers down their cheeks
She only wants his touch, his reassurance, and his love
She only wants to nor be the first every time
She only wants to hear him whisper of his love, to hear his heart
He knows nothing of her fears

He knows nothing of her fears
He doesn't know how she hurts, how his hardening cuts sharper than any knife
Her knows nothhg of her fears
He can't explain his mind but knows not of his heart
This deadly combination leaves her in the dark
All alone, grasping for anything and everything
Hoping with all she is that her won't reject her
The one person she truly loves won't reject her like the world
The one girl that just wants to be free
Free from her past, her present, her future
Free in spirit, heart, and mind
Free to be with him eternally

But he, he doesn't know and doesn't know what to do
For he knows nothing of her fears
