Words we should never have left unsaid.
Masked by fear,
The fear of rejection.
I could have told you millions of visions,
Of thoughts that never seem to leave.
Thoughts of you and me.
I should have told you better,
I should have told you that the sound of your laughter warmed my soul.
I should have told you that despite being so tall when you look at me I feel so small.
I should have told you the way my heart beats out of my chest when reaching for your hand.
I should have told you how my mind is blown everyday when you speak such intelligent things.
I should have told you how beautiful you are to me.
I should have told you,
And if I did I should have told you better.
Words we should have never left unsaid,
They leave a blank space in your mind,
Your soul.
You begin to wonder if maybe,
Just maybe,
You wanted to tell me them to.
But maybe I'm delusional,
Maybe I've gone mad.
I should have told you how you brighten my day with each passing second that I'm with you.
I should have told you how you take my breath away when you walk in the room.
I should have told you that your embrace feels like home.
I should have told you how much you meant to me.
I should have told you the context of that.
I should have,
Those are the words I never should have left unsaid.
And I hope we find the courage to have them said.
