Could You

Could you love only me,
If I gave you all my heart?
And loved you unconditionally ,
As if we would never part?

I can’t describe,
The way I feel.
I know how you are,
But I like you still.

Why can’t I just, 
Let you go?
I never had you,
Yet my feelings grow!

I’m so afraid to admit,
My feelings for you.
If I deny them,
I can believe they’re not true.

I’ve seen the girls,
You’ve liked before.
You’ll break my heart,
Then walk out the door.

So why can’t I simply ,
Leave you alone?
Why go through this pain,
When all along I’ve known?
