Description
I love you too muchFor my own good
(I quietly think as I lean my head against your chest)
I’m making the mistakes
That I swore I wouldn’t
I’m speaking the words
I vowed to keep inside
But you don’t even realize
(As you push my hair back and laugh
At your own reflection in my eyes)
Maybe the only thing I can do is wait
For the words that I never meant to say
To spill out of the corner of my mouth
Like rice from a sack
What would you do if that happened?
Eat them hungrily and look for more?
Or perhaps you would just leave them untouched
Search the room for something better
But don’t speak now
(Let my finger rest on your lips a moment longer)
I already know the answer
Or maybe
For my own good
I don’t want to

wonderful poem. sometimes telling someone that you love them can be a risk too hard to take.
