THREE WORDS LEFT UNSAID

I'm a person who's afraid to fall in love,
'cause I've witnessed many scenes of broken heart.
I've been living with doubts of whom should I trust,
of whom should I love.
But, when my eyes caught you,
I knew it from the start.
I realized what I feel,
should I give it a shot?

Moment flew swiftly, time passed.
Never thought this feeling would last.
I was drowned in loving you so much.
Though, I don't know if I have a chance.
I was close and closer but I felt tongue-tied.
Those three words never came out of my mouth.
I didn't know how to start,
for I was too coward.
What-if's have taken over my mind,
making it difficult for me to try.
What if you don't love me back?
What if I'm not good enough?

And now, I'm watching you from afar.
Seeing you happy with another man.
My heart was torn by the real feelings I've never shown.
My heart was broken by the words left unspoken.

'I love you.'
Only three words.
Three words I can't utter.
Three words I wanted you to hear.
Three words left unsaid.
Three words that cause my regret.
I regret every time that I've wasted.
I regret every moment I've taken for granted.
Owing to cowardice and fear of being rejected.

And what remained is the question,
'What could have happened?'
If I had the courage to tell what I really feel,
would it change everything?
