My I Love You Pushes You Away

I’m at a loss for all words
I only have myself to blame
I miss your good mornings
And how you brighten up my days

Every time we get closer
And I think you’re gonna stay
I write those three words
And says the thing I shouldn’t say

My I love you always
Pushes you away
Should I write of how I want you
Or how much I appreciate 

For me there is a yearning
I guess for you it’s not the same
Im sorry my I love you
Always pushes you away 

Don’t wanna hear your goodbye
Yes I love so I’ll let go
Spread your wings but if you return
Please let me be the first to know

I’ve masked feelings for so long
My silent prayers call out your name
I believe it’s fate and not free will
That brings such pleasure and such pain

My I love you always
Pushes you away
Should I write of how I want you
Or how much I appreciate 

For me there is a yearning
I guess for you it’s not the same
Im sorry my I love you
Always pushes you away

Time won’t help me heal
From what can never be replaced
I’m not sorry that I love you
I will until my dying day

I’m just sorry my I love you
Always pushes you.....away
