I Can't Say I Love you

If I acknowledge it, it becomes real,

And the chasm between us widens.

Atleast now I can see you

Be sure you'll listen if I call you.

But if I acknowledge it, It frightens me that i'll lose you.

My self is shattered in pieces,

Can you wait till I can collect them all?

Can you wait till I find myself,

till I can fill the gap.

Can you wait for me to reach you ?

I know it is too much to ask,

Can you forgive me when I say

That even though I do

I can't say I love you.
