What I Should Have Said

When you speak the truth too late.

What I Should Have Said

You told me to be open,

I simply couldn't,

You threatened to leave,

But you always have,

How should I have known this was it?

But now that you're gone.

Indeed, I didn't always tell you everything,

So here it goes...

I have always loved you,

Since your eyes hit mine,

And ever since then,

I didn't want you to think of me as weak.

But I am afraid,

I'm so scared that I would lose you,

And here I am,

all alone...

I'm sorry I couldn't say it before.

PLEASE COME BACK...

please.
