Would you let me tell you that I loved you?
Sometimes I bite my tongue and taste blood to prevent you from reacting in a way that would make me bleed completely.
Let me tell you I love you, in the way I love all things I know deeply.
Unless you want me to tell you I love you. Because maybe you love me too. And it wouldn't be such a horrible thing to do.
