I Cannot Say I Love You



Will you turn once to look back at me?

Down in the dust from your flee

Words I want gone from me

From the bottom of my heart in the blue

I cannot say I love you



I must confess

Sorry to have caused you this mess

Words filling up my mouth

Yet no sense comes out

Why whenever I see you

I shake and cry and sniffle too

But I cannot say I love you



My mirror reveals the reality

Staring back is not me

Just for impressing you

I lost myself in the amidst of foolish act yet

I cannot say I love you



Muddled messes of confusion

I have yet to come to the conclusion

But I know I will never reach my goal

To cover up the hole

Because I when I see you

I cannot say I love you



Three little words

Harder than writing ten thousand

One word to explain my actions: absurd

Yet even when I write this poem about you

I cannot say I love you



My mind goes blank

When my eyes reach yours

These words I wish from myself I could yank

And hope you feel the same way too

I cannot say I love you



Right now I'll rest

Thinking of you is arduous

Long, hard and tedious

Still I can't stop thinking about how

I cannot say I love you.
