You could

I’ve never met you but you could be amazing.
You could portray yourself to be everything I’ve ever wanted in a man.
You could be the one for me, waiting to sweep me off my feet.
You could be completely edible from head to toe and you could melt in my mouth.
You could play hard to get until I eventually fall in love with you and the simple thought of you being near.
You could lure me in with mystery and intrigue and tell me all the things I long to hear.
You could make me quiver and cry with the very sound of your voice.
You could make me feel like the woman I’ve always wanted to be.
You could say things that melt my heart and tug at my strings.
You could become everything I think about.
You could be the reason for everything I do.
Yes, you could. Actually, you did.

You could be absolutely perfect in every way and in a blink of an eye, you could be none of those things.
You could have told the truth instead of lie to me.
You could have said I was over reacting when I told you I loved you.
You could have told me this wasn’t real.
You could have mentioned you were a fake.
You could have been honest about it all instead of leading me to believe you hung the moon.
You could have said I was crazy when I said I would wait long after the heavens collapsed to be with you.

But you didn’t and now I don’t know what to believe because even though you may have lied, I’ll never know the truth but I’ll always love the you I made in my mind.
