I love you. by Chelsea Latshaw (icecream ebook reader txt) 📖

Looking back on the days that have past,
I realized a few things,
How we’ve grown closer,
Built our relationship up,
But I know how fragile and crucial friendship is,
How mandatory it is,
I’m counting the days until the fire inside dies,
Until you turn and walk away,
I’ll shed tears for you,
But I won’t ask you to stay,
If that’s not what you want.
But known that forever,
You’ll always have half of my heart.

Restless nights,
Staying up just to hear your voice,
Just to hear you say those 3 words,
Just to know that for that little bit of time I have your attention,
The days go by so slowly when I’m not with you,
Wondering if I ever cross your mind,
You say I have your heart,
But is that the case when I’m not there,
What happens when the phone gets hung up?


I hope that one day you’ll see,
You’ll realize that I was there from the start,
That I’m not like most,
You’ll look back on the times we had and think,
Damn I’d do anything to go back to that day,
You’ll realize that we would have been perfect together,
But do I ever even cross your mind?
Would you even notice if I disappeared?
One more question,
If I’m just a friend, why do I know what your lips taste like?


He doesn’t know what he wants,
He doesn’t get that I’ve been there from the start,
No matter what I do,
I can’t get it through to him,
That I can be everything he wants,
I can look into his eyes,
And I know he has to feel the same,
Even if he doesn’t want to admit it,
We laugh like best friends,
We flirt like we’re first loves,
And he can bring a smile to my face without even trying,
I try and tell myself he’s not worth the tears,
He’s just another 11:11 wish that won’t happen,
There’s no point in losing sleep again tonight,
It won’t happen.
But there’s a part of me that can’t let it go,
Can’t let him walk away,
Part of me that still wants to believe he’ll be mine one day.
Maybe it’s just not our time,
Or maybe it’s not meant to be,
Maybe it’ll be perfect, like the love stories in fairytales,
He’ll be my prince, or maybe the thing that’ll wreck me,
But I’m ready to take the chance, whenever he is.


Feeling fade,
And the fire that once was so bright inside,
Now just a dull flame waiting for that little gust of air to blow it out,
Why’d things have to change?
Why can’t I mange to find the words to tell you,
That I wish you were still here,
I guess some things are better left unsaid.


The moments we’ve shared are unforgettable,
I know that for sure,
You’re the one that I can count on,
The one that’s always been there.
When the whole world turned their backs,
You were still there when the smoke cleared,
And you’re still right there beside me.


I might be dumb for thinking that this will work,
That this will last,
Forever.
Just like we promised.
But who ever said love would be easy?
It might not work out,
But hell that’s not going to stop me from trying.
Because if there’s one thing I know,
It’s that I love you.
And I love you more than you will ever know.


I don’t know where we went wrong,
I can’t even think of the words to tell you.
I’m never going to say that I still think about you,
It hurts to think about it,
Things will never be the same,
And who knows maybe I’m the one to blame,
I messed it up,
And now it back,
But baby I promise you,
I’ll never tell you that I miss you,
Or that I want you back,
Never admit that I still think about you.
But if you ask,
I won’t deny it either.
