If I could only tell you

If I could only tell you

A Poem by Jb
"

It's fictional, internal debate over someone wanting to tell there lover how far gone they are, but knowing that they wouldn't be able to accept it.

"

I wish I could tell you

That I don't know if I'll get up this time

Because I've tried everything

That there is to try

Already

I wish that I could tell you

That maybe I'm just like this

The one with her head in the clouds

Always counting the stars

Escaping

I wish that you would tell me

That you'd love me no matter what

Inspite of every imperfection

That you'd try to help me

Heal

But I can't tell you

That I want to leave

Everyone and everything

Even though I love you

I just can't tell you

And that's why I want to leave

Everyone and everything

Because even though there's plenty

Of other people that would listen

My words should matter most

To you

Because you're the only one

That I want to hear me

But my reality

Is the one thing that

You would never want to hear

So this is what I'm telling you now...

Good bye
