"I love you."
Well, I've heard that before.
It's all too easy
to say those three words,
even when
you don't mean them.
And we all want to feel wanted,
need to be loved and truly.
Words of love
are always empty
without the investment of
time,
actions,
empathy,
compassion,
priority.
These are expressive instruments
of honest love.
And apply to honest expression
of all forms of love.
Without them it will never be real.
Without them its all just
sweet nothings.
I am a man of both words and actions
the two are never mutually exclusive.
