Ficlets

I love you
I’ve told you so many times before
And every time you listened and you
Smiled
That beautiful smile
But this time you can’t say it
You can’t know it in your heart enough for it to reach your lips
But my ears refuse to hear anything else
Its those words or nothing
So before you can say the truth
The fact that you can’t say it

I stop you
I’d rather spend this time with you in silence, smiling
You’re happy here, I’m happy here
Wherever it is that we are, let’s just stay
And if you decide you can say it
If you can break the silence
Than we can move on to where I know we are meant to be
But for now, where we are is perfect
Together
