Three short words don’t seem enough
The implications they emanate is pretty heavy stuff
They’re said easily by some, stuttered and stammered by the timid
Fear of rejection reigns in most hearts, making it tough

They’re three little words I’ve longed to feel and say
To someone with whom I’d spend a lifetime in a day
A person whose mind and body is joined with mine in exaltation
Who’ll play a song in my heart, without making my soul pay.

Three words meaning volumes when said to another
The words often said with different meaning by a father and mother
A commitment to stay to the end of the play
A standing ovation for devotion, applauding one another

Three words made of clay, two artists mold with care
Fired in a kiln, and decorated by the pair
Their free flowing form, it’s beauty is unequalled
Worth millions to them, but to others only change to spare

When the three are uttered, stopped in place by the feeling
No drama or games, when it’s unexpected makes it appealing.
From the heart, with sincerity makes these words come easy
We all know these three words , that send your heart reeling.
