Lie By Omission
You whispered to me ‘I know how to love,’
I think, am I an echo or clear sound?
There’s a question I need to get rid of;
Do you think of me when I’m not around?
The next time you see me may be the last,
perhaps I should say that I adore you;
Don’t let precious moments go by so fast
regret and realize how fast time flew;
Hang on to every moment we’re given,
holding tightly to a faded snapshot;
Staying quiet? A lie by omission;
Cannot ask you to say what I have not;
I try and speak then my courage just snaps,
I will love you until the stars collapse.
