you deserved a hundred love songs
but i didn't dare to open my mouth
to sing or even talk
when none of the words i could say
could never be beautiful enough

when i can't find the guitar chords
that sound as beautiful as your voice,
when my fingers can't play as fast
as my heart beats when you're in my mind,
so i just write

and i'm not treating you
like
a
god,
even if my poetic side wants to;
i just could never create something
good enough,
beautiful enough,
poetic enough
nor royal enough
for you,
so i just write

not even these words are enough,
but it's all i can do
because i don't know how to make a song

...

so i just write
