Affection

I have affections for you,

Ones that I hold so dear.

I really want to love you,

and whisper my love for you in your ear.

I wish I could tell you how I feel.

But it wouldn't be as sincere,

as the words I want to say,

and the words I want you to hear.

All words I think of, fall too short.

Because my affections for you are too deep to explain.

Human words do not give them justice,

They put them in vain.

I want to tell you how I feel,

but anything I say,

will put my feelings to shame.

So as I hang up this phone,

and await to hear your voice again.

When will I confess my affections?

and tell you that I want to be more than "friends"?

I want to tell you how I feel,

But what if the words do not come?

I want to tell you my feelings for you,

and tell you that  you are the only one.

But when I speak these words,

will you feel the affections that I feel?

Will you hold me in your arms?

and never let me go.

I want you to feel the way I feel,

But how will I know?

I want to tell you the way I feel,

But will I let it show?

I want to love you,

I just thought I'd let you know.

I totally know how you feel! You expressed wanting to express your feeling for this person very well :). The only thing that distracted me from your point was the repetitiveness. I noticed two or three stanzas were almost identical and you repeated a lot of words. You don't have to make the change, but if you really care then that would be a good suggestion. Otherwise, I really liked it
