How Do I Say The Words?

There is something that I've been meaning to tell you,
something that I've wanted to share with you for some time,
it's something that I've been thinking about,
something that always seems to be on my mind.

I long to tell you how I really feel about you,
how your always in my thoughts, and in my dreams,
that your everything that I've ever wanted,
that your everything that I need.

From out of nowhere you came into my life,
our relationship began as mere acquaintances,
slowly it blossomed into a friendship,
Then one day it hit me,
suddenly, I saw you in a different light,
it opened up my eyes and soon I realized
I knew then that I could never let you go.

Since then my feelings for you have continued to deepen,
with each and every passing day,
they simply cannot be erased and they won't just fade away,
your the only one I want to be with,
if this dream of mine would only come true.

But what do I do, when I am too scared to say the words?
the words that you need to hear,
the words that I desperately need to say,
the words that explain exactly how I truly feel about you,
I wonder what your response would be if you only knew.

I so often withdraw from telling you these words,
for I am too scared if your answer isn't what I want to hear,
what holds me back is being rejected,
this is my one and only fear.

I don't want to lose you,
cause I can't live without you,
I don't want to scare you away,
cause I need you in my life,
If you only knew how I really felt about you,
maybe there is a chance that you feel exactly the same.

If you only knew the special way that you make me feel,
whenever your around me I become hypnotized,
you've casted a spell on me,
that's captured not only my heart, but my soul,
I want this feeling to last forever,
and not for just a single moment in time,
what do I have to say to make you mine?
how do I say the words?

ahhh, Artemis....nothing ventured, nothing gained..if your fear is stronger than your love then, your love may not be enough..no?

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

good writing, you nailed what it is that holds me, and many others I am sure from saying what they want to say.  the only solution that I have found is just to say it, get it out, and no matter the consiquences you will feel better.

every day is a new day with which we can change the world

Artemis; It is a chance you must take or you will never know the glorious love you might have missed. Love is risky business! Ellie

I think you better tell her and then you will both have the chance to decide if it is for better or worse!  Life is too short for "maybe's".  Like your style.
