Listen to poem:

I say

When I say I love you, it’s because 
you carved out a place in me, one I 
never knew was there.

When I say I love you, it’s because
you traced every scar back to its 
origin and never once flinched.

You turned my heart inside out, 
sifted through the mess, and still 
found something worth holding.

I say I love you because your pain 
hums at the same frequency as mine—

and when our eyes meet, I don’t feel 
alone anymore.

And when you say it, I feel your soul 
lying next to mine,

like parallel lines that dared to bend.

for heri love youfree verse
