I Don't Know

I am sad
Kind of mad
Really frustrated, actually

I used to be so stable,
Stoic even,
But now...
I don't know

That seems like my answer to a lot of things lately
"I don't know"
What else am I to say?
"I don't know" seems
Too simple
But
I don't know,
It's all I can think of to say

I don't have a lot to say
I really only have one thing to say:
I need to say
"I love you"
But I can't,
Not yet, at least
And I'm dying inside
But that's okay because
I'm not ready
But it's not okay because
What if my time runs out?

I don't know

I'm almost there
To the point where I can't handle myself anymore
Where I have to let everything go
And just say it
But
Not yet
I'm usually a patient person, I swear
But I've been waiting so long and
I don't know

But yeah...
Yeah
Hm
I'll just keep my mouth shut for now
I'm kind of waiting for you to say it first
You're not going to
But I can't help but wait
So yeah
I'll just sit here
And be sad
And wait for you to notice
