What if...

What if I told you I never let on how much to me you meant?
What if I always seem to melt at your sight, your taste, your scent?
What if the impact you had on me was greater than you knew?
What if my greatest hope of late was the chance you felt this too?
What if you knew how happy I became, spending time together?
What if I said how terrified I was of losing you forever?
What if I made some stupid mistake? Where did I go wrong?
What if all I lacked was just the courage to be strong?
What if I saw something in your eyes, what if it were real?
What if instead of cryptic clues you tell me how you feel?
What if you'd chosen me instead? What if you knew this was true?
What if you'd kissed me and held my hand? I'd be falling in love with you.
What if I thought you were so much more, better than all the rest?
Seems no matter what I do, I'm always second best.
