I Love You

You spoke those words

Those three little words

You opened your heart.

You didn’t mean to say them

At least not then

Not where you did.

I didn’t know what to say

I can’t say them back

I don’t feel that way.

You said it was okay

If I couldn’t say them back

But I feel I should

I should want to say them.

I know you mean them

I know that’s how you feel

I know that’s how I want to feel.

 

Author's Note

It's been awhile since I've written, to get the words and emotions out. I hope to do more and grow again.

Thank you. Things have been "crazy" and writing never seemed to flow. This piece just poured out. You're encouraging words mean so much :)

Thank you!! Hopefully this year I will be writing more. I also want to tie my photography and writing together, so I might be needing some constructive feedback.

~ that would be awesome... and, i'm not good at critiquing but i'll try my best... p.s. i loved what you did with that picture of autumn... though i know you took the picture after writing because you didn't have your camera with you... but i absolutely loved that fusion of visual art and poetry... good luck... :)

Thank you!!! I saw the spot, so luckily I knew I'd be able to get the shot later. I feel mixing the two can sometimes bring a better understanding. I LOVE some of the pictures you were posting with your works, they looked really nice.

~ yes... absolutely... ~ i loved those pictures too... they were from pinterest.com... i actually stopped using them because i want to click my own pictures too... though i just haven't got around to it... i'll have to stop being lazy... :P

I need to work on my photography more, I want to but it seems hard sometimes (and I like having someone with me since I seem to find some hard places to "get around"). We'll have to motivate each other. If you want, take a look at some of my other shots. The link is at the top of my profile on here. :)
