Maybe I'll Regret You

Someday you’ll read this and wonder how you never noticed.

How every time I talked to you I had my hand pressed to my heart, as if that would keep it in my chest.

How when you looked at me with those eyes, I stopped talking and just stared.

How those Christmas cookies came for you every year, and I beamed when you smiled and said “thanks”.

How you thought I was just being a good friend when I told you she was crazy not to like you.

How that birthday card said “love” at the bottom.

Someday it’ll be too late.
