Wishes.
You used to think you'd be strong enough when the time came - after all, you'd expected it from the start. You knew that forever was something that would never come true - much less for the two of you - and you knew that you shouldn't hope (wish) because like they say: there won't be disappointment if there wasn't hope.

Goodbyes.
You never told him when it started, when your heart just reacted to his very presence, and you never told him that it didn't end.

Distance.
You hear his footsteps behind you, and you think that if you were just brave enough to cross the distance from your heart to his, maybe your world and his would be so much more different. But then again, you never said you were brave.

Courage.
You can't really remember when it happened and what you did, the day it slowly came undone, the bits and pieces fitting together. All you remember is the feeling of loneliness (emptiness), and how it was so, so hard to breathe and you couldn't think of anything except how much it just hurt.
Someday, when you really are brave enough, you'll tell him that you loved him all along.
