How do I tell her
That for years
I've pretended
To be friends
But every time
I see her
There's something
Heavy growing
In my chest
That feelings
Of affection
Grow stronger
And deeper daily
I can no longer
Hold me
Anymore
How would it sound
To her
That her smile
Brightens my day
And Whenever
I hold her close
To me
My heart
Rejoices
She's where
I wanna be
For the rest
Of my life
How do I tell her
That for years
I've been slowly
Dying
On the inside
Daily
When I see her
And
I'm still dying
How do I say
"You cross
My mind
Now and then
I've always
Been feeling
You were
The piece
To complete me"
To her
Wouldn't it break
Years of friendships
If I expressed
My love
And she don't feel
The same ?
I fear rejection
Would She love me
Like I love her ?
Or break my heart
Like all the others ?
I've always
Loved her
How do I tell her
How do I say
"I love you"
