What indecision grips me.
What tidings take me.
What dreams forsake me.
What concerns overtake me.
Her thought, her face, the thought of her embrace.
To see what you want and be too afraid to get it.
To know what you need and outside this darkened pit.
What slanderous emotions fill my mind.
What negative outcomes fill my time.
I wait and see if she will say one more thing.
To see if she would make my heart sing.
My heart knows as does my head.
But my fear causes my courage to be dead.
Why oh why do I care so much?
Only with risk can our feelings trust.
So still I hold my heart withdrawn.
And see if in her eyes I am fond.
