When Love Fades

She loves him deeply, with all her heart

But her insecurities tear her apart

Honest and true, she bears her soul

But he's scared, and that takes its toll.

He pushes her away, time and again

Her love for him, driving her insane

Tears roll down as she watches him go,

Leaving her heartbroken, in a state of woe.

Her body, a constant source of doubt,

As she always wants him to stay about.

But he leaves her in the dead of night,

Leaving her with her fears and her fright.

She knows not what to do or say

To make him stay, to make him sway,

Her love for him, strong and pure,

But his fears and doubts, she cannot cure.

The man she loves, she cannot reach

His walls so high, impossible to breach

Her heart aches with every goodbye

As she watches her love, slowly die.

Insecurities, that haunt her soul

As she longs for him to make her whole,

Her love for him, a ray of light

In a world that seems so dark and bright.

Her vulnerability, his greatest fear

As he pushes her away, drawing near

She loves him still, with all her might

But his fear of love, blinds his sight.

So she sits alone, lost in her pain

Her love for him, all in vain

Wishing he'd see, her love so true

And take her in, as she longs him to do.
