She has so many mixed emotions;
She feels confusion in her mind.
She doesn’t know what to feel or think;
She has the urge to run and hide.
 
Away from the monster he created,
One that will no longer sleep.
Made of all the feelings, that were found
Hidden somewhere, way, down, deep.
 
She should hate him for what he has done;
Awakening the deep feelings in her soul.
They would have been better left to sleep;
Awakened they are hard to control.
 
But she still craves to feel his touch,
Which has suddenly grown so cold.
She yearns to show her affection,
But fears his rejection, within her soul.
 
She wants to share all her feelings
And every thought, that crosses her mind.
Now, when he says he wants to know,
She feels, he’s only trying to be kind.
 
So again, she embraces the silence.
To her feelings, she has to make him blind.
She doesn’t want him to shoulder the pressures, 
Of her passions, on his mind. 
 
Usually she controls her emotions
So he never has to hear,
As she lies awake beside him,
The silent shedding of lonely tears. 
 
Why should she care so much,
As she yearns for his attention?
When in truth all that he had shown
Is his ability for deception.
 
But she stills sees all the good,
That is deep within his soul,
And hungers to feel the tenderness,
That she fears, he will never show.
 
While considering her options, she bides her time; 
Praying friendship is what he senses.
Maybe, somewhere in the future,
She can once again tear down her defenses.
