Visions of Middle Earth by WhiteLadyEowyn

Unspoken Thoughts

( Eowyn's thoughts are italicized, Aragorn's are normal text)

Do you not know
of the love that burns for you in my soul
Do you not hear
The pounding of my heart when you are close
Can you not see
The light that shines for you in my eyes
Do you not share
The intensity of these emotions

Can you not understand
That my heart is consumed by another
Do you not see
The same light shining in my eyes for you
Do you not know
That you are fair and beautiful to behold
Do you not see
That the Sun sets you aglow

Do you not hear
The desperation and pleading in my voice
Do you not see
That I am begging you to let me join you
Do you not realize
That I would follow you to the bitter end
Do you not know
That I only wish to be by your side

Do you not see
The burden that weighs upon my shoulders
Do you not know
The words I speak are to protect you
Do you not hear
My heart, wishing things could be different
Do you not know
That I only wish for you to be safe

Will you ever know
That I will ride to battle, seeking Death
Will you ever hear
The words pass from my lips ever again
Will you ever see
The tears that fall from my eyes now
Will you ever feel
Any of what I carry for you

Will you ever find out
That thoughts of you were ever present
Will you ever know
That I stand over your bed, in silence
Will you ever feel
The hurt that I find at your own injury
Will you ever be told
That I brought you back from Sleep Eternal

Do you now know
The happiness that you have brought me
Did you somehow find
That frost that had frozen my soul
Do you now hear
The beating of my living heart
Do you now see
The light that shines in my eyes for another

Do you finally see
The caring and honor I carried for you
Do you now hear
The Steward of Gondor, asking to have you
Do I now find
The love shining from the White Lady of Rohan
Do I now feel
That my heart is healed from its guilt
