Everytime you asked me what I wanted for my birthday the first thought that ran through my head was -"What's the point if you ask?"
And then I replied, year after year, with the same few words, or maybe sometimes worded a little differently-"I'll let you know if I need something"
Honestly, I still believe you weren't too good at the whole art of 'gifting', and I wasn't too good at asking either.
Needless to say, just like that I stored my birthday gifts away, with a tacit agreement that they wouldn't ever be redeemed.
For someone who's usually got too much to say, I'll always regret not having spoken up when I could.
Now that you won't ask what I want for my birthday do you suppose I can ask for the gift I didn't receive last birthday?
Or perhaps the one before that ?
I know what I want now, and even if I must trade all the gifts of a lifetime it would be worth much more...
For now, I know why I never asked. Why would I, when I had everything I needed ?
Because all I ever wanted, all I'll ever want is YOU!!
