i.
i want to tell you
that i think
ii.
you’re beautiful
(you are)
(i do)
iii.
but i’m afraid that you’ll
see past
what i really mean
and find the simplicity
of the words
more captivating.
iv.
i want to describe to you
the way in which my heart beats
when i hear the syllables
that form your name
but then you might
smile
with pity in your eyes
v.
because you know
that if i’m able to
say it
vi.
it’s probably already
a lost cause.
