i just want to say
     i love you
very simply
very quickly
before other words or other thoughts
suffocate its meaning...

i just want to say
     i love you
very truly
very honestly
before i lack the courage to stand
and present the words
as i want you to hear them...

i just wanted to tell you--
     i love you...

That's the best way to tell it, dg. And it only takes three words. It always amazes me how easily we can trip over them, and take a long circuitous route, when those three words pack so much punch and get straight to the point.

It special when you can tell someone you love them...sometimes I hesitate because I'm not sure if they feel the same way...James

If only those
words and honesty
wouldn't scare
one off so easily

Nice,

MIDNITE..yeah..we do seem to trip over them..and often we want to buffer them or explain them--make sure they are understood exactly so as not to frighten the reciever.....but in truth..its just 'i love you'...   
JAMESMICHAEL..hesitation is ok..lol  just dont wait too long....the moment will pass..
LADY..they CAN BE rather frightening..and should be found in the right place--not too soon, not too late..   but WHY do they have to be so frightening....??  

thanks for reading!!  hugs, g

In this searching soul of mine, I look forward to a day I may see those lips whisper these words to my heart.

Three simple words of love for two
Syllables that simply say they do
Told to one by the other one day
Saying all there is to simply say..


Such is the power of those three words..
Turning our stomachs upside down...

I hope you win,  and that the words are
heard, felt, acknowledged and most of all..

returned with the same things said..only
with a single word added..."too..."

Three little words with such great meaning and impact!
