You Decide

I love you
      he says, smiling.
   Twist his arms around mine,
   fingers along mine,
   mind at pace with mine.
Tick. Tock.
   I love you too
      whispered reply.
Empty words?

Only as empty as the smile.

Dear Annie: Great poem. Just because a person smiles when they tell you something, it doesn't make it true!!! Have a fantastic day.
