I Should Tell You...

I should tell you...
The many secrets I've kept under the shadows
The many tears I've cried behind your back
The many years I've waited here

I should tell you...
How you make me feel beautiful
How you make me feel safe around you
How you make me smile when I'm down

I should tell you...
How I tremble by the touch of your hand
How I panic whenever you're close
How my heart flutters each time you say, "I miss you..."

I should tell you...
That I am lost in this friendship
That I am swayed by a million emotions
Yet at peace when I'm with you

I should tell you...
I have yet to know what you really feel
Confused with your sweet ways
Reminding myself that friends is all that we can be

I should tell you...
This is what I've been feeling all along
This is what has been holding me back
This is what I've been living for
