Of all these years of hiding my true feelings for you
It has been five years, maybe six if you count the first time we spoke,
And every time I planned on confessing it to you, I would see your dimpling smile and I would choke
I thought you would call me a chicken for not saying anything all these years,
Only true friends can see through secrets, and last night you confessed that you knew I loved you all these years,
A thousand pounds of love burdens lifted off my heart, as I sat in silence, tetextingou in the dark,
Now all I have to do is get the nerve to call, but I am afraid, anxious, and worried that our friendship and relationship will have a fresh new joint start,
The truth is I am afraid, afraid of losing you again,
See we both are grown now, and our careers our and dreams have yet to begin,
You leave in March for the military, I leave next spring for Paris, we physically lose each other once more,
Believe me when I say that everything I say is from my hearts core
I am afraid that we will never see each other, and If we do we will have already been wed to someone else,
Boy I want to be with you, dont leave me, I swear I dont want nobody else,
Promise me you will always be here, promise me, everything will be okay
I love you so much, but I dont know what else to say
But I can say that I do know, that you know now that I have loved you since the eighth grade
