A poem on words that wont come out.

Three words,
They consume me.

One meaning,
Words elude me.

I just can't tell you,
I still want to.

Those three words,
I must tell you.

I stand there,
You stand there.

You greet me,
Then ask me.

I open my mouth,
But I say nothing.

I say nothing.

Then you leave.

I still say nothing.

I love you.


But I say nothing.

I meet you again,
And I start again.

This dance I do,
Unending.

I stand there,
You stand there too.

You greet me,
then ask me.

I open my mouth,
But I say nothing.

I love you.


But I say nothing.

But I say nothing.

But I say nothing.
