I love you

words that have so much meaning. so much power. So much potential and yet taken for granted.

I love you* she whispered to him for the first time. She's never told anyone these three words before but this time it just felt so right. He smiled and kissed her. He words latched on to her back which brought her spirit soaring like never before.

I love you he spoke to her over the phone as his left foot stepped forward over the 25 floor drop in front of him. He suspected that the words he spoke crept out of his mouth not towards his love as he had hoped but instead it fell, just as he fell. It was as if the words stuck to his body and weighed him down so hard that could not do anything but plummet down.

I love you she mouthed to her child as the infant grasped her finger. She looked at the child with so much caring, warmth and tenderness that it was no wonder he was so silent. He lay soundly, reassured that all was right for him.
