If Only They Knew

Friend>>Husband

I love you

Three words you shared

I never returned

I love you

One dart to the heart

One to my brain

One to my ego

I still couldn't say

I love you

Impeccable timing

You must have known

Three little words

What's the name of the show

Turn it off I begged

My heart couldn't bear

Your brain is lying

Oh how unfair

I love you echoed

As it pierced through my soul

These words are too dangerous

But, you didn't know

You said it one time

Then said it two more

Then five, six, and seven

And so many more

This must be a joke

For, we've only just met

Fairytales aren't real

How dare you forget

Whether my heart beats fast

When you walk in the room

And maybe a smile, laying next to you

And just because you look at me, with big brown eyes, like pools of honey

And maybe you might have stayed the night, but

My heart is battered, torn, and scarred from everything that left a mark

When you came here with your boots that lace and a big dumb smile across your face

And though prince charming may not exist, they sent me a man who kept promises

and I couldn't fight it for I knew it was true

I love you with everything I felt next to you

I loved the way you understood

That highs and lows and ups and downs were only how my world spun around

And even though we had just met you bring security and warmth each time we slept

My oh my how I want falling head heels and tingling in my toes

My prince wasn't charming and not a knight in armor

For he was a man who waited around, maybe bought a dog and wanted to settle down

For the girl he chose was more extra than ordinary

And though the idea that love must be true

For now she loves with the I and you

Then those three words turned into two

Now Mr. and Mrs. said "I do"
