i find it hard to let you know
what is really going through my mind
because words tend to stay locked
behind a wall of confusion
and the looks you give me
only reflect the sadly truthful words
you had said not too long ago,
blinding anything i’ve ever wanted
to give to you
and leaving behind only a shadow
hiding away the limp thoughts
i regret not saying sooner
but there is still this hollow feeling i get
that begs for recognition in the midst
of moving on
that makes falling seem just so right
again
because when you ask me if i love you,
i only wish i had the courage to say
“you make it hard for me not to.”
