Is love enough

She walks through the shadows beneath the moon
Reflecting on the nights spent in his arms.
She shivers at the thought of his touch
And cries from the pain of missing him.
He will never know the emptiness she feels without him
Or understand the turmoil deep within her
She has never known a love so pure and true
Never felt such joy that only he can bring
She longs to be once again in his arms
And fears it at the same time
For the love she has for him he cannot return
And in this is where her fear lies
For will she be just like the rest
A disappointment in his eyes
Or can she live up to the standards he wants
And prove to him that her love is true
She walks through the shadows beneath the moon
Reflecting on the time that they had
Wondering what their future will bring
And if her love is enough to see them through
