Three Little Words

It’s hard to tell when you’re listening. Sometimes I can get it wrong. It’s not always easy when you’re the only one left to guess what’s wrong.

You’re a hard book to read and a difficult sweet to unravel. Although, spending so much time with you has made me feel as though I’ve travelled.

It’s hard to tell when you love me, when sometimes you say it all wrong. At times when I say it to you, I see you sitting there, wondering if it meant anything at all.

Your face tells a story, it lays deep within your eyes. For the beginning is a new adventure and the end is kept a surprise.

You’re a complicated character, everyday I find out new things about you. Don’t ever try to change for me, I like you just as you.

Deep down inside I know who you are. You’re the one I care about and the person I’ll miss afar. I don’t wish for the end to come but I long for a new beginning on a shooting star.
