I wanted to say
I love you
I put all I had
Above me
Towards you
I kept it beneath
A sea of leaves
My love for you
Grew stronger than trees

That day I finally told you
I nearly lost my breath
Felt hundreds
No thousands
Beats per minute
And you read it
Oh you read it
And three more dots later
I left it
You said "No more" and you left it
I'm sorry
It's my fault
I said it
I really just want you to know
How much it took me to grow
To muster the courage to show
My heart to you
To tell you the truth

I love you
I say that with care
I love your scent
Your curly hair
That random laugh
That hugs the air

I love you
But that love
Is wrong

I keep you close
Here in my heart
Your existence
Is a work of art
But inevitably we drift apart

I love you
But that love
Is wrong
