i know i shouldn't
i mean i know i wouldn't
of course i wouldnt
why would i?

but
if i could tell you how you make me smile
when you laugh
or tell you how i love how you occupy your space
full but free, comforting but never caging
i would do just that
but i know better

and
i know you could never love me
but if i could tell you
just once
how beautiful you are
i think it would just be nice
that's it
that's all
