Jeopardy

It's true
I always knew
Exactly how I felt
When it came to you.

I just thought
It would be okay
If I didn't start
Telling you immediately.

You have no clue
What you do
To me
Exactly
And now you never will
Because I've delayed this
I've put it off
Procrastinated.

Certainly,
I will regret this
Unbearably
For as long as I live.

I'll always wonder
What might've happened
If I just had the courage
To tell you how I felt.

But, then again
I have told you before.
It's just that
The chances we'd get together
Are beyond minimal,
Smaller than microscopical
And no one could ever detect it,
The way I honestly feel.

But were you even trying to see it to begin with?

How can I tell you now after so much has happened?

You're trying to start your own life and live your own way,

How could I even think about putting that in jeopardy?
