sometimes

i look into your eyes

and want to say [redacted]

 

sometimes

you look into mine

and it's hard not to say [redacted]

 

when it's raining

and we both feel bad

for reasons beyond our control

i want to pull your face down to mine

and say [redacted]

 

and i coat them

with words that mean the same

but not completely

i care for you

i treasure you

i miss you

i wish you were here

i value you

i miss you

i miss you

i miss you

 

and i just hope you see

the meaning behind my words

the confessions behind my actions

my little kisses

the chocolate you like in my fridge

the candies that are straight up sugar only you can eat them -- a pack in my drawer,

stored just for you

 

little i love yous

little gestures of care

and affection

 

little steps of trying

hoping

wanting

 

and still end up saying

you mean the world to me.
