Tormented!

I'll forever live to drink from this cup of guilt
For I failed you,I failed to uncover what I felt
I failed to catch a glimpse of your silent tears
For they were hidden behind your pretty eyes
And every time you voiced the words "I love you"
I presumed that  you never meant them
and embraced that impossibility

I'll forever live to drink from this cup of guilt
For i failed you, I failed to notice your heartache
I failed to catch a glimpse of your lecherous stares
I took for granted your candid intentions
I professed a friendly feeling towards you
When all I felt was an immaculate feeling of love

I'm scared  I'll forever live to drink from this cup of guilt
For I waited too long,
too long till your  inordinately desirous heart became tired
And as I jam my keyboard with these last words, this moment,
Maybe you are holding his hands
Or maybe your pink lips are parting his
But here, I am, unattended to, all because I was a coward
When all you languished from me, to hit your eardrums,
Were only three words "I love you"
