How Can I Tell You?

by Bobbie J. Brown (Scorpio) - Not entered

How can I tell you?
without being able to show
all that my heart holds
inside and needs for you to know.

How can I tell you?
You are the greatest friend I've found,
so you'll understand
and not mind when I am around.

How can I tell you?
that with you I can be myself,
and at the same time
you could simply make my heart melt.

How can I tell you?
I've never felt the way I do.
You don't want to hear
just how much love I have for you.

How can I tell you?
If you should ever need someone
to love only you,
please take my heart that you have won.

How can I tell you?
I hear -- It will never happen.
My heart still wishes
and wants to dream for someday when....

How can I tell you?
I am happy to be your friend
and until that day,
a friend I will remain instead.

How can I tell you?
when I'm not sure how to say it.
It does not matter.
After all, I guess I just did.
