I can hide my eyes
But you, love, know who I am
And what I have done.
How can you promise
That I will never know thirst
Unless you are he?

Love the whole thought of how she can’t hide from “him”. Nice.
this was heart touching and very, very beautiful.

Unconditional love is hard to maintain withouot reciprocation. Her desire is for romantic love and he doesn’t hold her in this heart the same way.
love it,

Tender love, and courage of exposure … beautifully captured. Thank you! becca
No need to ever hide your eyes if you are truly and wholly loved. Well done–so many ideas are brought up to me as I read this.
Poignant and must be deeply distressing to her. Well expressed!!
