Affirmation of Love

Listen to poem:
Affirmation of Love
David J Walker

Learning to say I love you
In one of the languages that
We both think we understand 
Left wondering in the after actions
If the words were weaker reflections
Left hanging heavy in the air like smog
I am the one left smugly in the fog
Of wrong interpretations
Missing the inflections of permissions
That should be left to better judgments
Then I can make in the passion of 
The moment
“I love you” is packed with phrases 
And paragraphs and pages of a 
Lifetime together
They are all we have to say it
In a life dedicated to affirmation
