I need to say I love you to someone today someone who won’t use it against me later someone who will hear it as it’s said someone who knows I don’t need to hear it back just to say I love you as a child innocently accepts your lap as a man lies his head upon your shoulder |

Duncan, say it to yourself(you'll never use it against yourself) It's so good to be loved, but hey, some people don't appreciated. Love this one. [This message has been edited by walker (edited 11-02-2001).] |

Ahhh the L word. Tis very important, and should be used sparingly. I hope one day you can find that worthy individual. ![]() Jenn "I want love on my own terms; after everything I've ever learned. Me, I carry too much baggage..." |

Duncan, this sweet and short little expression does so much. You have said well what some take volumes to attempt. |

Is it me? Or is this one of the most stunning poems I’ve seen? No, it’s one of the most stunning poems I’ve seen. It certainly left me lost for words, and it is, beyond doubt, my newest favourite by you. Someone can hear the words I love you And hear them exactly as you meant them too Just whisper the words as you lean on her shoulder Then take her in your arms and gently just hold her If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

*sigh* I agree with what everyone else is saying. This poem is stunning in its simplicity. I love it. I am sure you are very much loved and I can see by the responses here that indeed you are loved. ![]() Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

And when you said I love you It reached a thousand ears Thousand hearts are ticking Thousand eyes filled with tears Three simple words I love you You needed just to say I heard them sweet dear Duncan And I'll return them if I may Thank you for this beautiful verse Titia A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |

This reminded me of some song lyrics, "Lay your head upon my shoulders, Hold your warm and tender body next to mine" Isn't it nice to know there are so many great shoulders here at this site? You won't run out of shoulders in this century, although I'm sure there's one pair in particular that you had in mind. |
