Four letters balance themselves, hanging precariously on the tip of my tongue. A single syllable, firing in my mouth like a bottle rocket from tooth to roof. Dare I say it? One word that could make or break me. Us. I sigh a breath of air, full of silent screams. Begging myself not to. One. Two. Three. Four little letters. Love. I love you.

Four Letters
Four letters balance themselves, hanging precariously on the tip of my tongue. A single syllable, firing in my mouth like a bottle rocket from tooth to roof. Dare I say it? One word that could make or break me. Us. I sigh a breath of air, full of silent screams. Begging myself not to. One. Two. Three. Four little letters. Love. I love you.
