How Can I Tell You?

I don't know how to say it,
Words were never this hard for me to use.
I want to show you how I feel,
But I can't bear the thought of losing you.
How can I say it without looking like a fool?

I did this once before,
But ended up broken on the floor.
I don't want to hold onto false hope.
Did that once before.
All I got was pain and heartache.

I told him how I felt.
He told me lies.

I long for what my brother has,
Someone to talk to,
To hold on to,
To love me,
Most of all someone to miss him when he's gone.

I miss you when you're gone.
Maybe the feeling is mutal.
Maybe you don't even notice.

If I told you my darkest secret,
Would you tell me yours?

If I came to you with my problems,
Would you listen?

I wrote the last guy a letter,
He told me he'd rather be friends.

By now you can tell how I feel,
Do you feel the same way?
