Too Little Too Late

In my heart of hearts, I always held you dear.

Longing for your love, year after year.

Oh how I wished to show you then,

Verses I penned but never spoken.

Every day, I thought of your sweet face,

Daydreaming of your warm embrace.

Yelled I did, with all my might

Only you wouldn’t hear, cause I yelled in my heart.

Underneath the friendly face, I was in love with you.

Endlessly, hoping you would magically love me too.

Instead of telling you, I played coward,

Lest I ruined the special relationship we had.

Eternally bound in my mind are those memories,

Engraved in my heart, like sweet melodies.

Never to be forgotten, till unto dust I return.
