The Words I Won't Say

Four letters and one syllable,

Yet so afraid to say,

It tastes like candy on your tongue,

Yet never shows in the light of day.

X

You show it all the time,

Sometimes in the craziest of ways,

Yet I never return in the way you want,

But I'll never forget those long summer days.

X

I'm afraid you see,

I'm scared of what could happen to you if I fail,

But I won't- not for you,

You're the mast for my sail.

X

You would never bend or break,

I'd never fold or cave in on you,

Not while you're standing strong,

Keeping us together…

I love you too.
