only if you knew

i wish i knew why you laughed,

and how much of yourself you're holding back. 

i wish i knew if you liked me too,

or if you just think of me as a friend. 

i wish you knew i got you those roses 

that i'm pretty sure you won't ever take home. 

i wish you knew how i spend all my time

counting down the minutes to when we get to talk,

the seconds before we wait for that long scene to end.

i wish i could know if your hatred for that scene

is because you have to spend it with me.

i don't believe in destiny,

but with you i feel complete.
