First Words of Love
On the tip of the tongue they stayed;
The heart urging, and the soul swayed.
The mouth’s lips held firm;
The mind raced, looking for the term.
I like you very much;
Had seemed to lose its touch.
Grasping, wanting, bursting for more;
The heart, the soul began to roar.
Louder and stronger, the need became;
Knowing that each, was feeling the same.
A hushed whisper at first, did they pass;
Again, and again, they began to amass.
Each time bolder, with more confidence;
When finally, they came together, in perfect sense.
Three small words filled with hope and joy;
Didst fall from the tongue of this innocent boy.
The words are strong but remain so few.
My only, my beautiful,
I Love You...
