I would love to say I love you and love for you to say it back,
but I would hate to say I love you and have your feelings back track.
Feelings is just a state of mind and the heart has no limits,
both try to fight it but neither can control what’s in it.
Love of like a drug kind of like and addiction
It gets into your body and starts an emotion confliction
But to be honest love is just a state of mind
Love is kind, love is true, love is caring, love is daring
But love is a risk
So I would love to say I love but hate to have my intentions missed
You entice my feelings and cultivate my mind
I cherish our relationship and value our time
We walk at the same pace and our hearts beat the same
I would love to say I love you but hate for that to change
If only I could say I love but I’m just to afraid
If only I could say the words then the monsters of fear wouldn’t know my name
I’m terrified of your reaction
I’m running from your words
But I always come back because I know I wont be hurt
You have my heart, mind body and soul
Everything’s that’s happing is no longer in my control
I dream of you at night and think of you during the day
I miss you at a moment wishing you could say
I would love to say I love you and I don’t think that I can wait
I would love to say I love you, but like the planets it seems so far
Never the right or place
I’m wishing on a star
But now is the right time and place
My wish just really came true
So I would love to say I love you
And honestly I really do
My love is personal, universal but most of all unconditional
I love you

This piece is strong and so emotional, filled with all the fear and love you put into it. It is something everyone who has loved someone can relate to. It can mount into something beautiful but yet we are all so scared to make that first leap. Thank you for sending in this beautiful poem.

Becca.
