Saying Something..


By Asmai Fathelbab


I don't understand why I can't just say it?
Am I waiting for you?
Waiting for me?
Am I ready for this at all?
I wish I could turn to you and say that I want to not just see you at the moment,
But see you at every moment possible.
I want to just say kiss me now and forever!
And that I've never been kissed because my lips were only on reserve for you.
I want you to know that I'd move to Venus,
If only to be nearer to you.
I want to tell you that you are everything I've ever dreamt of,
And have needed.
I wish I could tell you that when I am lost,
All I have to do is look to you to know that I am with you.
I want to tell you that I want us to spend the rest of our lives together,
And never say goodbye no matter how far the other goes.
I want to make you blush as I shout from the roof tops,
'I'm In Love With You! '
And have you wrap your arms around me with love and disbelief.
But because I am still full of fear of this wonderful emotion,
I am stifled.
Quiet.
Silent.
Until God gives us both the strength to take that window,
And utter those three little words,
'I Love You! '
For the very first time.
