Anticipation

Staring - hollow eyes in search,
A heart lingering on a prayer,
Open whispers - said in church,
She just wishes he would be there,

Beating softly - so much emotion,
So amazing it's almost real,
It's pure love - a simple notion,
Yet she's too afraid to feel,

Taken - mesmerized in fascination,
Life is more beautiful each day,
Lost - hard to find concentration,
Her breath held for what he'll say,

Three words - the perfect dream,
This will be the end of it all,
So close - she wants to scream,
But I would never let her fall...
