I Love You

Why is it so hard to say what you feel?

By NicolePublished 6 years ago 2 min read

I don’t know what to do, it’s like I’m stuck

My heart says one thing, but my mind says another

I’m at a crossroad here and I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do

Why does it have to be this way

I can’t make up my mind, I don’t know which direction to go

Please, oh please just tell me

Should I go or should I stay, the answer is unclear

I love you, I love you, I love you!

Those are the words that would ease my mind

Those are the words I have to say

I love you, I need you, and I’m sorry

Why is it so hard to just say what’s on your mind?

Just to hear your voice, hear what you have to say

Why does this have to be so damn difficult

They are just words, words that don’t mean anything, or do they?

Just say it, say it and I’m yours

Say it and I won’t leave, in fact I’ll forget the whole thing

I want you, not just now, but forever

I know you probably won’t understand and you’ll think I’m just overthinking

But you need to know, I have to tell you

I’m sorry for being a fool and acting so crazy

I’m sorry I didn’t believe you when you told me the truth

I’m sorry I ran off instead of staying with you

I’m sorry…

I got jealous, but that’s nothing on you

I know I got upset and blamed you

I just care so much that I’m afraid you’ll find someone better

Someone that will love you more, and that’ll be the end of us

I’ll lose you forever, in fact I’m sure I already did

I acted crazy, I blew up, and I ran off

You probably went to tell her, or maybe you didn’t

Maybe you stayed

I guess there’s one way to find out

I’m on my way over, not really sure why

My stomach's all in a knot because, I’m worried what you’ll say

I don’t even know what I’ll say once I see you

Will I actually say it or will I just leave…

So many thoughts running through my head

I'm screaming to just let it all out, but I can’t

If I say everything that's on my mind, you’ll think I’m nuts

Maybe I should just try a different approach

No it’s too late for that I’m already here

Walking up the steps, and my heart is pounding out of my chest

One tap on the door, what’s next

Everything stops and suddenly you’re there

Taking a deep breath trying to stay calm

I’m sorry for leaving, I’m sorry for blaming you

It was my own doing, but there’s something more, something I must say

I… I love you
