I’ve heard the words so many times before, and they never had meaning until I overheard him saying them.  They mean nothing to anyone who won’t listen, but to those whom do they mean the world.  I’ve heard other guys use those words behind my back, but never to my face.  They never told me how they truly felt so all it was in my heart was a mystery in their heart.  That I could never reach.  Then when he said those words, my life changed in a flash, even the way I felt about him.  How was I to tell him I felt the same?  Maybe his feelings have changed, there’s now doubt that mine have.  What am I to do?  I'm just a girl that knows nothing of the word.  How do I let him know?  What about the pain, how do I let him know?  I’ll tell him one of these days maybe.  Does he really understand as much as he seems to?  Ive thought of this for so long.  This feeling of mine will confuse us both.  But it has to be said; there’s no doubt that this feeling would never go away.  With all these new thoughts, what am I to think?  Maybe he will understand and I'm just overreacting, but is there any way for me to be sure?  A kiss is a kiss but with love involved it’s much more.  How shall it be known?  I can just hide it inside.  Just because I'm a girl doesn’t mean I understand love.  I'm young and inexperienced in all that love involves.  They should know I'm nothing more than a child wanting to be released.  This is a mere glimpse of what I'm truly feeling.  Love is an emotion I haven’t yet begun to deal with.  I will know when it’s right and when it’s wrong.  Though I’ve never felt love this strong before, I know I love him.  Those words he speaks to me are mesmerizing.  Every day I hear someone say he does while I'm nervous about my feelings what will he say if I tell him I love him to.  I'm not sure how things are gonna go from here, I know what’s in my heart.  And I can tell by the look in his eyes that he feels the same.  The way he holds me just makes me want to never leave him.  He has been there through everything now that I know how he feels how should I let him know how I feel?  My baby’s gonna leave me unless he finds out.  My feelings are the same.

That can certainly be a confusing time.  I think you should go with your heart on this one.  I didn't make a move for quite a long time, and I felt the same, luckily my girlfriend is bold, hehe, she asked me and now were both happy.  Maybe that's inspirational, maybe not, I say go for it! And good writing too, I think you got the feeling down great

Wonderful in your expression here. I would of course ask for better (more) paragraphing, but that's just me...
As to the content... perhaps you should tell him, but then again, if you doubt, then maybe not. Who really knows love? Is it so one-dimensional, that there are certain guidelines for it? That you must feel a certain way, act a certain way, to be in "love?"
I think that no matter your experience, no matter your age, your feelings are just as valid for you as anyone else's are for them!
