As i sit here
i search my heart, for the words to express my inner most thoughts.
my hands glides across the paper
In short strokes
it all seems so trivial and ordinary
compared to what i feel for you
i crumple the paper and start over
seeking for that word
that will say it all
that word that when you read it
you will instantly know how i feel.
its so close
i can almost touch it
its on the tip of my tongue
no matter how hard i search
it escapes me
i will have to be a thief
stealing age old words.
shared by millions
they are not original
But as i think of them
it feels as if i created them.
i treasure you as mine,
and i cherish you as a soul.
i long and desire to hold you near
for as many days as God allows me to breath
i immediately realize that my last thought as i write this
was the same as my very first.
i started this letter because i love you
i sought for words to express that
but decided to choose
the three very words
that have been chosen for centuries
are simply
i love you
and i do
and forever i will.
