Ljs4912



I almost told you I love you,
3 weeks ago.
I almost told you I love you,
last Thursday.
I almost told you I love you,
Saturday night.
I almost told you I love you,
this morning.
My eyes say it everytime they look
into yours.
My lips have said it each time
they've met yours.
I know it's too soon, I still barely
know you.
I know there are obstacles in the way,
huge hurdles to jump over.
I know it's almost ridiculous to
have these feelings given our situtation.
But, I also know this...
I almost told you I love you.
