I wanted to say
I hope you’re ok
And I understand
Why
I wanted to say
I hope nothing’s changed
And I know you’re not
Lying
I wanted to say
I’ve fallen for you
And you’ve kept me
Smiling
I wanted to say
Not to give up on us
I think we should keep
Trying
I wanted to say
The pressure is off
No more rules or
Expectations
I wanted to say
All is not lost
There’s no need for
Directions
I wanted to say
Take time and space
And I’ll be here
Waiting
I wanted to say
I miss you every day
But I’ll just be
Patient
I wanted to say
All these things
But the right words –
I can’t find them
I want to say
What you won’t say
Now we both remain
Silent.
