Unaware

Lover lays beside me
As I keep my tears from sight
Thinking of the battle
That I haven't the heart to fight
If only he'd shut his mouth
And open up his ears
I'd tell him how I feel
Would he still dismiss my fears?
My pain remains insignificant
As night grows into day
I only wish he'd understand
What I'm trying to say
