Denial

I need to stop denying it,
I can't keep on hiding it.
Everyone else knows it,
well you don't.

I know it but I won't admit it.
I'm scared I'll regret it.
But I shouldn't be scared.
It can't be that hard can it?

I just look in to your eyes and say it right?
I just need to risk so much for you to give me the only reply,
I need.
I want.

The movies and films make it look so easy,
half the time the characters aren't even together and one of them says it and all is fine and dandy from there.
I just don't get it,
It's not that simple so why make us think it is?

I need to tell you,
But I refuse to because I want to hear it from you first.
I know that sounds selfish, and God knows you'll even say it to me.
But it's down to insecurities.
Down to me being so scared of losing you,
I can't lose you.
Not after all the time I've spent trying to catch you.

You've caught my heart, from the very second,minute I met you.
You've made me smile like no one else ever has,it's genuine.
You make me feel good about myself and I believe it when you tell me because I know you're honest.
You've made me feel things I've never felt before.

So how can this be so hard?
Why can't I say it?
It's three little words.
Come on, you can say it.
I believe in you.

"I Love You."
