How I Wish I Could Say! Poem by Raouf Reda

how i wish i could say
how i feel every day
i know i have to keep it real
tho it saddends me more
each time
i promised you
i would not cross that lineso theese fellings
they must
stay in side for she can never know
i think her beauty makes flowers grow
that there are no depts i would not go
i wish that i could show
how her voice makes my heart grow
i know she wonders do i reallly care for her
in those ways
i always have to answer nay
if i were to say yes that would be bad
it would cause her to hurt some one
that i can not have
so all i feel
must be locked away and sealed
if it would come to lite
to how much i care i wish i could
but i do not dare
they are mine i can not share
i can tell her this
i will not lie
if it ment to save her
i would die
