Whisper

I saw you everyday
we hung out and conversed
how i longed to say
"i love you so much it hurts"

you're so special to me
i long for your love divine
how i wait for the day
that you will be mine

during a conversation
we had on the phone
you told me you were leaving
i felt so stranded, alone
tears collected in my eyes
i struggled to keep them in
as i thought to myself
"has he no idea how i love him?"

a few weeks passed
and we said our goodbyes
right before you left, to my surprise
you told me the words
that i longed to hear
you said to me "i love you dear"
a feeling overwhelmed me,
like i would faint
my voice became under such restraint.
you drove away,
and i felt the sorrow of
a caged bird
because i whispered
"I love you", finally,
and you hadn't heard.
