I should have told you, the moment that I met you, that I could fall head over heels for you.
When we spent late nights talking about everything and nothing, I should have told you that I was attracted to you.
When you showed me your sensitive side, then hurriedly tried to cover it with a witty phrase, I should have told you that I was in awe of you.
When the rain was falling, so fast we couldn't see, I should have kissed you.
When the night was cold and you complained of it's bitterness, I should have held your hand.
When you smiled and my knees went weak, I should have told you.
When you touched me, I should have mentioned the jump of my stomach.
When I saw the ache of sadness in your eyes, I should have held you fast to me.
When I looked into your eyes, and you asked what was the matter, I should have told you that I adore you and when you showed me things, no one else has, I should have said, that I feel everything for you.
When you stood beside me and asked why I was staring, I should have told you how strong you make me feel and when you walked away, I should have screamed how weak I am without you.
When you were talking to others, I should have begged for your attention.
I should have told you how jealous I am of the people who know you much better than I.
I should have mentioned the times I spent plotting how to bring out the smile, that warms everything inside of me, but I didn't and now your walking away, and I'm calling to you, you turn, and I'm speechless.
I don't know what to say but your waiting and I have to say it now or I'll loose you, and without you I'm nothing.
Stumbling and mumbling, you ask what I'm trying to say. So I say the only thing that matters.
I love you.
















Comments
The theme itself is well done, and the way you've written to it is in such a way that most people can identify with it on some level, at least in some part of the poem. It's free somehow, and thus all the better for it- it doesn't seem like controlled writing, you follow? Something more raw, a little more elemental and a little more pure. That's something that I can respect in volumes, and something that I'm only now learning how to do with any amount of true success. I look forward to seeing more of your writings around, and I hope that you can forgive me for a lack of a better-written comment.
Best of wishes, and keep it up!

o If at first you do succeed try to hide your astonishment.
o If you can't learn to do it well, learn to enjoy doing it badly.
... It's a process of waiting it out. It's the life of an artist.

You missed when time and life shook hands and said goodbye, when the earth folded in on itself.
