Eight Letters

Eight letters can mean so much
If arranged in such a way
To spell out those three little words
The ones in life we crave

So simple is the message
Yet its meaning so complex
Exposing heights not known before 
They're more than one expects

Eight plus three is eleven
Whose one and one now equals two
The math is simply added up
The answers me and you

So if you ever hope to know
How I feel here is your clue
There's little more that I can say, than simply:
I Love You

A fine highlight of a truism, that love is indeed complex and that is sometimes so difficult to say. Fine write. JH
