Eternal Rest

He never knew because I never told him
And I can’t say that I never had the chance
Because the opportunity presented itself many times
It was the fear of rejection
Because I felt I had no chance with him compared to the other girls he kept around
And now he’s gone, and never coming back
And I wish I would have told him so that he would’ve known
But now he will never know
And I can’t help but think that maybe if I told him despite the fear
We could’ve been something, seen where we could’ve gone
But no, not now, and not ever
My feelings will remain mine forever
Never being shared with him
Taking advantage of the many chances that I had before
Counting each chance that passed and always losing count
Mad at myself for letting my fear rule me
I loved him and I wanted him to love me
He could’ve loved me, had I told him instead of playing shy
I could’ve seen where it would have gone
But now he will never know and I will never tell
So all that I can do is put my undying love for him to an eternal rest
