Orion's Belt

I Wish I Could Tell You

I wish I could tell you

But not what I'm feeling now.

I wish I could tell you

How I was feeling days ago

Not tomorrow, nor yesterday

But in the weeks before the storm

When we were young

Madly in love and desperate

For a single touch.

I wish I could tell you

The deepest confessions inside my soul

The truths cloistered in the dark

The small nothings

The love I have for you.

But, it's too late now.

We've both grown up overnight,

Yet, you don't know it.

I do, and I wish I could tell you

That we'll be okay

But, it'll be the biggest lie,

Because it's no way back.

Nothing will be as it was.
