Baby

Baby, Babygirl, Bebe, Babe,Bae,Bebesita. All these words feel so sweet like honey when you say them

Make me yours

Tell me im yours

Im your baby girl

Now till forever 

How sweet those words

are coming from your mouth 

when you say them 

But don't tell me you love me

I don't want to hear it

If it isn't real what you are feeling 

Cause every time i see you

every time i read your name

every time i think of you

I just fall for you even more 

Can't believe i like you this much 

My eyes have little hearts in them 

which sparkle every time  i think

how much i want you here with me 

And i keep thinking 

If i should say how i feel

or just keep it in

But it kills me

So i say nothing.

I like the honest, openness of this poem. It is great when we can express exactly what is on our minds to someone and maybe ease the burden of thought a little bit.

But, this feels more like what the speaker would like to say. The contents of the heart that would be a great relief if they could be poured out, but perhaps she’s not sure if the object of her affection is trustworthy.

My favorite idea was that of not wanting to be told ‘I love you’ because of uncertainty regarding the truth. Knowing and understanding the truth, however painful, is certainly preferable to believing an illusion that will later be shattered.

A lovely heartfelt poem.

Thank you for your review. I loved reading it.
You just felt everything in my poem and what i wanted to say and that is amazing.
Yes, that illusion is much better though, you know the truth but you can't stop thinking about the beautiful things behind it. It's like Alice in Wonderland.

[Eilis]

Yes, the two possible worlds. You are welcome. I’m glad I read the poem as you intended.

I liked it, love is quite complicated, isn't it? You want the person to love you not just like you but then you also think ahead and think, what if that person leaves after he/she tells you that he/she loves you, or worse yet, doesn't quite feel the same way, that'll be devastating, so you stay silent, anyway, nice.

[Intothemilkyway]

Indeed. but what can you do sometimes?
you know the conclusion so that's why you stay silent.

This little poem is just bursting with warmth. I am thinking tell him, tell him how you feel. In these days of uncertainty and coldness, it is more important than ever to remember love and kindness. There is a saying, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Loved reading this.

Thank you Chris.
I loved reading the first part , i felt like you were shouting at me and it was so funny.
Before this was me i couldn't be open about my feelings. But now im 100% sure if there is a moment i will be able to tell them what crosses my mind and what hides in my heart

[Chris Shaw]

So pleased you have seen the light. Don't hide yours :))

This is a charming love poem, reveling in the language of lovers. It can sometimes seem hackneyed and trite, yet in the sincerity and warmth of your writing, we feel the honest desire of the poet's heart. Yes, it's one thing to put it into words on the page, another to say it in the presence of a loved one. Also, not wanting to hear empty words from her lover rings true.

A nice, warming read. Kind of cuddly 🌹

Thank you dear friend.
Certainly there is no comparison when you hear the exact words from your lover.

oh...i like this .. such innocence and falling helplessly in love ... enchanted by the too cute line:
"My eyes have little hearts in them" ... i think you poem is unpretentious ... has no need for flowering language, metaphor etc. .. it comes across honest .. and emotive and universally relatable .. a delight to read .. thanks for sharing Ms. Milky
