I don't know how to tell you
what I have long wanted to say
thinking and thinking and thinking
wondering how it might play
wanting you to know how much I care for you
but fearing the worst of worse
not knowing if you would reject me
or ridicule me right to my face
wanting to ask you a question
hoping on hope to have the nerve
not being satisfied with where I am
not wanting to lose what I have kept so long
Author notes
this is my wanting to say something and not knowing how I should say it or even if i can or should
