I Love You

I love you
These three words we share
In the past have meant nothing
But loss and despair
They've been spoken so many times
It's routine
To believe there's an inevitable
End to this dream

But I do love you
And it's happened so fast
In all of my experiences
This never lasts
For you, and you know this
Have an open door to leave
And maybe once more
I'm the fool wearing heart on sleeve

I am trusting you fully
So please always be true
Tell me your feelings
So that I may have some clue
As to where we are headed
I'm on board to the end
I love you my darling

Love always,
Your best friend

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
