You never said I love you
For as long as we’ve been together
How long has it been now?
Not long enough for me
I’ll never get my fill of you
You haven’t said I love you
The words have never crossed your lips
But lately I’ve noticed
That even if you don’t know it yet
You do
I see it in you eyes when I tell you something hurt me
And your first instinct is to make sure it can’t again
I feel it in your arms when you’re holding me at night
And you pull me just a little closer
Even though we’re already pressed together as tightly as we can
I know it’s what you feel when you say it breaks your heart to see me cry
Or that I make you happier than anything
And that I’m the best
I worry that it won’t be enough for me
A longer time from now
Just seeing it and never hearing it
But I trust that once you figure out what this feeling is, you’ll realize that’s what you feel for me
And that when that happens, you’ll say it back
But until then,
I love you
