Have you ever said "I love you,"
And then been left hung out to dry?
The silence can be deafening,
Almost enough to make you cry.

It's not something I'd recommend,
For it's not pleasant in the least.
It comes from falling way too fast.
Sometimes this love can be a beast.

It may work out but maybe not,
When it is just too soon to tell.
But unrequited love can be,
Just your own little slice of Hell.

So then you have to wait and see,
If all your dreams are coming true,
And if the one that one that you adore,
Will say those three words, "I love you."
