If I wrote you a poem about love
Tied it with a ribbon and send it to you
Would you assume that I was asking your opinion
Or realizing what I am trying to get through to you?

Twisting words into knots
Swearing what I know not
Would you know it was for you
And as far as I can tell, true?

Would you know that it is to you I speak
Delicately putting my feelings on display
Courting your heart, caressing your ears
Trying to win you with clever word play?

Love isn't something I trust
Finding it is just fickle lust
This time seduction doesn't quite fit
Because my heart won't quit.

Should I scribble words onto a scrap of paper
Draw a dozen hears around letters arranged in a verse
Describe in detail the feelings that you fill me with
For you to know I love you enough to burst?

My feelings are flighty at best
But I love you more than the rest
Someday, my heart may change course
Can you accept this for what it is worth?

If I sent you this very poem
Rewrite it and refined it amazingly
Marked it with my lip stick
Would it, maybe, influence how you feel for me?
I have seen her face
She is an angel in this dark place
I have to match her pace
So that I can linger in her grace

She is twice as amazing as I thought her to be
I wish she could feel something for me
Somehow, I know I should leave it be
But I still am convinced that this will slowly kill me


xDD Odd, but true: I am never the person to first say "I love you." Maybe it is because I never really feel it, but feel obligate it to mirror it.
So here goes, *deep breath* I'll love you until my death (or until our courses alter or my heart finally falters). Until then, I promise I'll only say it if it is true: I love you.

I keep coming back to read this one. It's so beautiful and urgent and such a familiar feeling for me. :heart:
