I wish I told you I love you

I wish I told you I'd be there for you At least Make you believe it Because I never told you about how we'd forget about each other But I'm no fortune teller I left I'm sorry I loved you And I told you not to forget But you did And I forgot to refresh your memory Like the same plain water you drink Drank I forgot Did you keep up those old habits? Like picking your nails when you were nervous Or when your ribcage expanded You'd trace the gaps in between the bone Skipping the hills in your soft skin I forget Do you still whisper into your pillow secrets? Do you still wish upon stars? Do I fill your mind sometimes? Underneath the moon Or spread across the stars Where you can connect them and draw pictures of my face Wait I still remember Didn't you want to leave this place? Touch the heavens And feel your cold fingertips get warm again? I keep those memories in my head Yet I can't make out who you are But I'll wish upon a star one day Maybe the ones that you trace Or kiss at night But I'll wish upon one And I'll ask for it to be a messenger through space and time To tell you I love you when poetry runs out of rhymes It's a wish I'll make Even if it's the only wish I can make So when it comes true I'll know I told you I loved you
