Stuff written by me

Better Left Unsaid

Sometimes things are easy to say

For me that's rarely the case

As it is I can't have a conversation

without stuttering and stumbling over words

To say something important is nearly impossible

The words I've always wanted to say never came out

I don't have the courage to say them

It doesn't matter though, I haven't gotten the chance.

Even if I did, I'd chicken out anyway.

Why do I bother getting all my thoughts down if I never say them?

Writing them is easy but I want to say them face to face

I've tried I swear, but every time I think I can I talk myself out

He doesn't even know I have something to say, he never will.

There's nothing I can do about it

I'll never be able to tell him

And as long as he doesn't know I've got something to say

He can't make me do it,

It will forever be written on the pages of my journal

Never for him to truly know

And in all honestly I don't mind that one bit.

Maybe we're just better off friends

It doesn't seem we'll ever be together

Why waste my breath on words he won't care about?

I think it's best I not say a thing

Save myself from embarrassment and let us just stay friends.

I don't mind though. I don't mind that at all.

I'll keep telling myself that it doesn't matter.

That it wasn't meant to be. I don't mind that.

As long as he doesn't walk away.
