How Can I Say

How can I say this without freezing,
forgetting my words,
skin turning red from the heat.
How can I say this without fear,
hopelessly looking,
scared of what you might say.
How can I say this without tears coming,
flashbacks flying,
pushing the words to form sentences.
How can I say this without knowing,
will you feel the same,
scared that I will lose you all together.
How can I say that I love you,
without saying it at all.
