What I Wanted to Say

that's what I wanted to say
when you said something witty
and I said "yeah."
what I wanted to say
when you said it was beautiful
and I didn't say anything.
What I wanted to say
was why are we talking like this?
like i don't know what you're feeling
unless you tell me
unless you say it
you're witty
you're beautiful
you understand.
"I know." That's what I wanted to say.
