Quiet Desperation

Sunday, November 02, 2003

You know? I have gotten it into my head that no guy can really like me. And if he does, that he will like someone else much better very shortly. that's why I can't date anyone.

If I had said I loved you would you have stayed?

If I had told you how I felt, would you have gone away?

Why did you leave me all alone before I got to say

That I love you more than life itself; now for it I must pay.

If I had said I loved you, would you have strayed?

*

If I had said I loved you, would you have gone?

If I had asked you “love me back?” would you have turned to run?

All sweet fellowship and blessed friendship would be over and done

And hope for stubborn love’s rebirth would be zero to none

If I had said I loved you, would you be gone?

*

If I had said I loved you, honest and true,

Would you have looked me in the eye and said “I love you too”

Would you have taken me by the heart and said “I won’t leave you”

Would our two hearts join to be one, to beat as something new?

I wish I’d said I loved you, and you knew.

Sure beats what I’m going through . . .
