Silent Motive

My timid heart is at a standstill 
Quiet through her gentle whisper
She gazes my way with disquietude 
Can this be? 
She empathizes with my habitual dolor?
Are we one and the same?
Her beauty reflects her buried affliction 
Her coming and going reflects her astuteness 
Her downfall of fallacy attests to her reality 
The persistence shines upon her personality 
Truth prevails through her love for humanity
