I Couldn't Say

I've known you for ten years,

We've been together all this time,

We were best friends,

Little did you know, I wanted you mine.

 

I couldn't tell you, couldn't say,

The way I felt about you,

It would ruin the friendship,

I learned later on that you wanted me, too.

 

All the good times we had,

We always had fun,

You didn't even get mad,

When all the games, I won.

 

I couldn't tell you, couldn't say,

They way I felt about you,

It would ruin the friendship,

I learned later on that you wanted me, too.

 

I was so happy when I heard you loved me, too,

I rushed to your home and the bell, I rang,

But, when I came into your room,

I saw that you were hanged.

 

Silently, in shock, I cut you down,

On your bed there was a note,

"Goodbye, world. I'll miss you all,

She didn't love me, although on her I would dote."

 

He couldn't tell me, couldn't say,

The way he felt about me,

It would ruin the friendship,

I learned too late that he loved me, too.

The writing style is simple and direct yet powerful and emotive. There is great depth in your subject matter and beauty in the simplicity of your writing style.
