you should have told her, that she gave you butterflies and made your palms sweaty but you didn't. you should have told her, that her voice was the one you'd hear in a crowded room. that you wanted to listen to that laugh for the rest of your life. but you didn't. you should have told her, that when she kissed your cheek for the first time, it fixed your broken heart and re- awakened your soul. but you didn't. you should have told her, that night you were scared. that to love her, would mean you'd be in ruin. you couldn't face what it would mean if she didn't love you. you were scared that eventually after all this time to listen to your heart you'd loose her and her love. but you didn't. you should have told her, outside on that cold january night that she was worth the risk of heartbreak. that looking into her eyes hoping she wouldn't see past your facade, that the truth was beating out of your chest. you should have told her the truth but you didn't. you should have told her, that if you kissed her it wouldn't be a meaningless kiss. it would always be more than that. she'd always mean more than that. but you didn't. you should have told her, you were falling in love before she fell for someone else. but you didn't. you should have told her, that seeing her with someone else was slowly breaking your heart. but you didn't. you should have told her, that you could be that person she wanted. that you'd love her forever. but you didn't. you should have told her, to stay. that when she left you'd be missing half of yourself, you'd only be half whole. but you didn't. i should have told you, i loved you but i didn’t.
things i should have told you, but didn’t.//t.c
