Waiting for the words to come,
The words of letting him know
That she loved him.

When they took a drive to the country.

Escaping into another world made
Brighter by her love.

Deny what stands before him. Apparent,
But still confusing because he realizes that it requires no work.
The two are connected and yet the realization has not occurred.
