Whisper

I could whisper all my secrets
Write them down in the darkest ink
I could tell you all the stories
that had my heart shrink
 
I could listen to you breathing
and fall instantly asleep
I could feel your arms around
and know that it’s okay to weep
 
I could look at you smile
and feel not that it’s fake
I could hand over my heart
and know its nothing you’d forsake
 
I could whisper that I love you
but it wouldn’t be the same
I rather let the world know
That I’d be okay with your last name
 
Ive been lying here for hours
feeling chills run down my spine
Cuddle up in blankets
wishing you were under mine
 
I could sing you every sad song
with a voice that’s not too well
but I’d sing to you every lyric
to tell you how I fell
 
I could tell you that I miss you
when it’s not been yet an hour
You’re warmth is all the energy
and your presence is the power
 
I could whisper that I need you
when I’m feeling just fine
Because I need you here to hold me
just want to know you’re mine
 
I cant wait for the nights to come
that never seem to end
where we’ll talk until the morning
every words that pops into our head
 
I cant wait for every morning
when I awake and watch you sleep
and just dream of all the days to come
that you’ll be here with me
 
I could whisper that you’re beautiful
all the world has yet to see
and know in my heart that this is right
knowing everything we’ll be
 
I miss you when you’re with me
because tomorrow you’ll be gone
sleeping in your big warm bed
the day will feel so long
 
I love you when you’re with me
and I love you when you’re not
and the way you look at me to say
I really love you a lot
 
I will whisper to you secrets
that aren’t really secrets at all
because every second im with you
the more inlove I fall
 
I know that it’s late
and that I should go to sleep
I just wanted to let you know
that your heart Im honored to keep
