What I Couldn't Say

The words I couldn’t say haunt me in my sleep;

taunting me and teasing me.

I should have told them to you face to face when I had the chance

But I was scared (and still am) and I didn’t say anything.

Now, I don’t know when I’m going to see you again

And if I don’t say anything now, I’m afraid I never will…

I care for you more than you’ll ever know.

Whenever we were together, it felt as if nothing else mattered in the world.

When you held me in your arms or if I laid my head on your chest, I felt safe.

I am probably too late in telling you this

Or maybe I’m just still afraid that you don’t feel the same.

Who knows, I may share this with you, or I may not…

It just depends on how much I’m willing to get hurt
