If Only You Knew

I tried to be mean to you
But we instead grew
A deep friendship.

Your intellect and complex mind
And your eyes shined
With a beautiful black color.
I could never get rid of this
Love and now it's you that I miss.

If only you knew I admired
You and desired
Your precious time with me.
I'd tell you, "I love you."
It's too late though;
You're gone.

I was quiet and scared
And always feared
That you hated me.
Now, it's like we're lost at sea.
I'm so sorry.

I never wanted this love to be a struggle.

I wish you could come back
And get rid of this black
Feeling in my heart
And tear it apart.
If only you were with me
Then maybe we could be free
From that pain.

If only you knew.
But you flew
And might never come back.
