Untitled

Pictures that do not portray;
The ink-less pencil drained;
Endless pages of endless scrawl;
Full of words erased.
Emotions that I want to tell;
But my heart cannot explain;
Feelings that I have for you;
That my words cannot convey.
And I've tried and tried,
Endless times,
But I can’t find the things to say,
And all my words, and writing,
Are all expressed in vain.
I’m using the best of the words I know,
In these sheets of endless scrawl
But when it all comes down to it,
They never seem to say it all.
So after countless months of wordless days,
That just cannot express,
My mind returns to one simple phrase,
My heart cannot suppress;-
And I know that words are not enough
But it’s the best my heart can do-
Just a simple, three world phrase:
I LOVE YOU
