Three simple words

by TerraLeigh   Dec 31, 2010


I love you! Three simple words, but why can't I say them? Although I know I do, how can I be so frighted?
Fourteen years have gone, yet we still remain so strong.
Good friends from age of six, and yet here I sit, writing a secret of my deepest mind.
All I need is you here by my side, though I cannot say my deepest desire; "I love you."

I'm what makes you smile, you've told me so yourself.
We sit and we talk for hours upon hours. You tell me you love me in corny little ways. Still I cannot say, "I love you."
Relationships have passed, tears have filled my eyes. Hurt from all the lies, and still by my side you wait. You love me.

I want so badly to tell you how I feel. It seems so simple. But its such a big deal.
Do I risk my friend, my family, my confidant, my heart, to tell you, "I love you" ?

I do. I love you....

    You're welcome. We all need to hear the opinions of others.
    Btw, check this:
    You said, "Do I risk my friend, my family, my CONFIDENT, my heart, to tell you, "I love you" ? "

    If "confident" means a person then the word is "confidant"--with an "a".
    Originally, I thought you meant "confidence", but you didn't change it so I assume you are referring to a person.
