"Life's too short to be unhappy, You have to take the good with the bad; smile when you're sad. Love what you got and always remember what you had. Always forgive; never forget, learn from your mistakes, but never regret." -Author Unknown


I need to tell you the truth, before it gets to be too much,
I need to tell you the truth, before I've finally had enough.

Long text messages, that leave a smile on my face,
Memories we have, that I try to retrace,
Thinking about you, as I stare off into space,
Because someone like you, can never be replaced.

Because with every smile, that leaves me feeling weak,
The way you make my heart race, makes me act like a freak,
And all the times, you've left me unable to speak,
They lead me to tears, rolling down my cheeks.

I need to tell you the truth, before it gets to be too much,
I need to tell you the truth, before I've finally had enough.

Because I miss you, with every changing day,
I wanna kiss you, before it becomes too late,
Because I need you, in every single way.
And I'll love you, no matter what they say.

I try to hate you, for my heart's sake,
But even though I try, I'm unable to fake,
Because I care for you, no matter what it takes,
Because I love you, even if it's a mistake.

I need to tell you the truth, before it gets to be too much,
I need to tell you the truth, before I've finally had enough.

Long text messages, that leave a smile on my face,
Memories we have, that I try to retrace,
Thinking about you, as I stare off into space,
Because someone like you, can never be replaced.

Because with every smile, that leaves me feeling weak,
The way you make my heart race, makes me act like a freak,
And all the times, you've left me unable to speak,
They lead me to tears, rolling down my cheeks.

I told you the truth, but it's already too much.
I told you the truth, and now I've finally had enough.

Sometimes confessing the truth to someone can be hard, but confessing the truth to yourself can be even worse.
