If Only

Do you ever wish he saw what you see, and feel what you feel?

If only he realized it

That when I looked in his eyes,

If only he could detect it,

Every time we speak,

If only he could see

How much my heart longs for him.

If only he could see,

How his presence makes me lose all speech.

If only he would realize

How I feel looking in his eyes.

 

If only i had

The guts to tell him how I feel.

If only I could

Be his forever.

If only it was possible,

To stop thinking of him.

If only I could

Share my heart with him.

If only I could

Share with him my first kiss.

If only I could tell him

How hard I’m falling for him.

 

If only he could

Catch me before I hit the ground.

If only he knew

How much I really like him.

 

If only we could

Be together forever.

If only he could see

That standing in front of him,

Is a girl that will love him for all of her life.

 

If only I could say

That he’s the boy of my dreams.

If only I could say how

He is in my dreams each night.

If only I knew if

He felt like this too.

 

If only he knew

How confused he makes me.

 

If only I could

One day to him say “I love you.”

 

If only he could say

“I love you too.”

Sweet rhythmic flow to this poem of love unfulfilled. Well written.

I really enjoyed this read. Such a universal theme, so relatable and accessible. Well told and expressive. The flow read well, although it doesn't look that way on the page to me. Great write. :)
