The Weight Of Words

by Aubrey   May 8, 2009


The weight of the words I was keeping in crushed down on me hard.
But it felt good because it took forever to get them right in my head, you would figure I love you wouldnâ??t be hard to say.
But it was.
And believe me; I am head over heels for the boy.
There are two ways it can hard.
One, not having the power to say I love you because you donâ??t feel it.
Two, not having the power to say I love you because you want it said perfectly.
I was choice two.
I felt it within my heart. I just wanted to say it with a huge affect.
Which it would have.
Yeah, words get the best of me. They are simply poetry in an unusual form.
Thatâ??s what I love about them.
You can do and say so many things with them.
I wanted mine to melt his heart. You know the icky-gushy kind that makes people go, â??awwwwwww.â??
Itâ??s those words that you want to top that of Romeo and Juliet and Jack and Rose.
Hell, even Jack and Sallyâ??s words from Nightmare before Christmas, â??My dearest friend, if you donâ??t mind. I'd like to join you by your side. Where we can gaze into the stars, and sit together, now and forever. For it is plain, as anyone can see were simply meant to be.â??
Thatâ??s like perfect right there except with a big I love you right in the middle of that. Poetry written unexpectedly but yet as beautiful as a sonnet written by Shakespeare himself.
It doesnâ??t get much better than that.
I guess primarily I want to prove to him I love him without even saying the words. Just looking him square in the eye and he just know.
Forget the weight of the words.
I have the weight of my heart right on my sleeve.
The weight of the words crushed me until I finally told him.
Relief spread throughout my body.
And I smiled.
