I want you.

Do you want me?

I'm unsure. You act socold, but I can see it in your eyes. You're scared someone will find the real you. The frightened, lonely truth, in its entirety.

Will you show me the real you?

I want you to let me know you. I want us to smile and laugh together. I want to call you more than my friend.

That won't happen, will it?

I want to touch you, but I'm afraid you'll break. You're in agony. I can see it.

How can I make you see how I feel?

I want to take your pain away from you. I want to tell you it's alright to go on. I want to tell you that I'll always be there, no matter what.

Would you accept these simple words from me?

I'm afraid you'll reject me. I don't want that.

Would you do that to me to keep yourself safe?

I want to help you heal. I don't want you to change. I just want you to be yourself. I want you to stop this painful execution your giving yourself.

Do you know I can see you dying inside?

Let me make it better. If I can't do that, at least let me soothe your pain. If you're sure this is what you want.

Does it matter if it's not what I want?

I want to make you happy, I want to see you smile. I want you to be excited to be alive. I want you to be strong again. Strong enough to go on, knowing you won't be alone.

Won't you let me give the support you deserve?

I want to give you everything. I never want you to hurt again. When you hurt, I do too. Let's make it better, I know we can.

How would you reply if I told you how I felt?

I don't want you to say no to me. I want you to be honest. Don't lie to me again. I forgave you for your past, let's move forward. Together.

This won't go any further, will it?

I don't want to hurt you by forcing this on you.

Would you be happier if I said nothing?

I'm confused. Just tell me what you want. I'll do anything for you. I promise. I don't want the darkness surrounding you to take you away. I don't think I could handle it.

Will you let mesave you?

I think not. I'm afraid you'll shun me. Let me reach out and take your hand.

But you won't take it, will you?

No, and it's my fault.

Because I never said those three simple words.
