For all the times I did not say you're beautiful,
I regret the words unspoken,
The moments lost, the chances gone,
My heart now forever broken.
How many times have I gazed upon you,
In awe of your radiance and grace,
But my lips remained sealed,
Afraid to reveal what's in my heart's place.
I was blinded by my own insecurity,
And foolishly I let it be,
For all the times I did not say you're beautiful,
I now see what a mistake it was for me.
Your beauty, it's not just skin deep,
It's the kindness in your eyes,
The warmth in your smile,
And the strength in your sighs.
But I was too afraid to show my admiration,
To tell you what I truly feel,
For fear of rejection and humiliation,
I kept my emotions concealed.
But now as I watch you from a distance,
I realize the extent of my mistake,
For all the times I did not say you're beautiful,
My heart aches with regret and ache.
Your beauty is a gift to the world,
A light that shines so bright,
And I wish I had the courage,
To tell you this every day and every night.
So now, with these words written,
I hope you finally see,
For all the times I did not say you're beautiful,
How much you truly mean to me.
