Does He Know


Does he know

My fear or pain

The hurt, hidden deep inside?

 

Does he know

About the scars

Of the millions of tears

That I have cried?

 

Does he know

Just what's been on my mind?

 

Does he know the hidden truth

When I say

'I'm fine.' ?

 

Does he know

How much I wish I'd said

But never did?

 

Does he know

The guard I kept

Or feelings I kept hid?

 

Does he know

How I feel

Or what he means to me?

 

Does he know

How hard I try

Through life's insanity?

 

Does he know

I'd wished each night

That he had made me stay?

 

Does he know

How much it hurt

For me to leave that day?

 

Does he know

I'd wished for him

To just say, 

'Please don't go.' ?

 

Does he know

The pain I felt

All that time alone?

 

Does he know

The fear I hold

Each and every day?

 

Does he know

How much I hope

That he can make me stay?

 

Does he know

The fear I have

That I could lose him once again?

 

Does he know

I keep that fear

And try to hold it in?

 

Does he know

How much I still care

Or how much it hurt

To see him go?

 

Does he know

How much I love him?

Does he truly know?
