101. I Don’t Know Why I Don’t Tell You Poem by Jaden Knight

I don’t know why I don’t tell you
about how I feel about you
I guess I thought you knew already
maybe I don’t give you enough clues
or maybe you would have worked it out

I don’t know why I don’t even try
I guess I thought you’d have asked me first
I thought that you would felt the same way
and that would make it easier

I keep trying to wait until we’re alone
before I tell you how I feel
but I never seem to be able to
by the time I can you’ve gone

I guess that I’m worried about your reaction
what you would say to your friends
I don’t need you to laugh it away
I won’t be able to deal with that

I don’t think that I will tell you yet
though it goes against what my heart tells me
but I will not stop giving you clues
in the hope you’ll finally work it out
and tell me that you feel the same
