Saying those short
words,
However often
heard,
And knowing you
mean each.
Overcoming problems.
Being right for
each other.
Commitment.
Do friends make
lovers,
Or the unknown
freshness,
Of two who meet
by chance?
I am able to
wear my heart on my sleeve,
And most often
I do.
But when you
cannot read your heart,
Should you show
others it?
If it lay dormant,
Would it ever
come back?
I am too young
to know if love grows,
If love needs
a certain environment.
Or simply if
in an instant,
That heart on
my sleeve will be pierced,
Putting itself
above everything.
Even so,
I am in awe of
any who say,
"I Love You"
