Daniel Gibbs Poet Free verse

I Could Tell You

I Could Tell You She's Got Green Eyes,
But I Won't Be Able To Get Lost In Them Again.

I Could Tell You She Snorts In Her Laugh,
But It Won't Mean I Will Hear It One More Time.

I Could Tell You Her Favourite Song,
But I Won't Hear Her Sing It Again.

I Could Tell You Her Phone Number,
But It Doesnt Mean I Will Ring It Again.

I Could Tell You She Likes Lilies,
But I Won't Be Able Give Her Another Dozen.

I Could Tell You We Went Out For Four Months,
But I Can't Tell You Why She Walked Away From Me.
