I like you
Is what I want to say,
But the fear of rejection keeps me
From doing so.
I have been broken,
For saying what I feel
So many times before.
Excruciating pain--
I don't want to feel anymore,
I want to be numb,
But I still want to feel
The way I feel about you.
You are unlike others
I have met before.
You are the sunlight,
In the darkest of the day.
I know you may not
Feel the same.
And I know I might
get hurt in the end,
But I will risk it
just so you know
how I feel about you,
*I like you
Is what I want to say,
But the fear of rejection keeps me
From doing so.
I have been broken,
For saying what I feel
So many times before.
Excruciating pain--
I don't want to feel anymore,
I want to be numb,
But I still want to feel
The way I feel about you.
You are unlike others
I have met before.
You are the sunlight,
In the darkest of the day.
I know you may not
Feel the same.
And I know I might
get hurt in the end,
But I will risk it
just so you know
how I feel about you,
*I like you
