Secret Love

When you love someone you should tell them, right?
What’s the point of keeping that all inside,
Never sharing it with the only person you’d ever want to tell.
Walking around with this
Love burden on my heart
Makes me want to get in my car,
Drive to your door,
Shout it out from the street that
I love you!
What have I got to lose?
Aside from you and me and us and everything.
No, the loss is too great,
The risk is too much.
I’d rather secret love you forever than ever
Tell you the truth.
So I’ll whisper it now, scribble it on this paper,
Tell only my heart’s version of you—
A version that takes me in his arms,
Breathes in my hair and asks,
What were you waiting for?—
That I love you.
It just happened.
I really really love you.
