Inkblot

i've tried to write for you
i've tried to put into words
The most intimate, and meaningful things
To ever cross my mind

I cross my heart 
I think i would die
If i could force my feelings
Into just one line

But the syllables they never sound
As powerful once they make it out
Pass my lips and through air
They're softer than you could ever hear
