Things Unsaid

I am writing you this poem because
There are so many things that I haven’t said
I just don’t know how to tell you
But the words keep floating through my head.

My whole life is a mess right now
All I can think about is you
I don’t sleep, I don’t eat anymore
And I discovered feelings that are so new.

I want to hear your voice
Every minute of the day
I just don’t have the guts to call you
Afraid of what you might say.

Maybe you don’t feel the same
Or maybe you do
I am just scared to tell my feelings
Even if it is to you.

I wish I knew how to tell you
I really want to say:
I love you with all of my heart
Forever and a day.
