I Should Have Told You

I wish I could've told you how I really felt. Well baby the truth is your smile makes me melt. I wish I could have told you the things I kept inside. So many times I tried to not let my real feelings hide. I would not take back any of the times we shared. My favorite of them all Were when you showed you cared. You could always tell when there was something wrong. Though I tried to put on a smile you said I didn't always have to be strong. When I would say I was fine you could always tell it was a lie. I've never felt so comfortable letting someone see me cry. I wish I could have told you you were the reason for my smile. Now that you are gone it hasn't shown for a while. I wish I could have told you what your presence meant. At some of my toughest times it seemed like you were heaven sent. You were always so good at keeping my mind clear. No sad thoughts or bad feelings. God do I wish you were here. Now that you are gone I can't figure out what to do. I miss you so dang much. If only I would have told you…
