Description I see you and forget that I am shy

forget that I'm a
wounded
anxious thing

I do not let the word
love
pass my lips

but you can still
feel (it in) my smile
when your head
is turned away
(when my eyes
and ears
are drinking you in)

never has breath
come this easy

never have I felt so
comfortable
in my
own
skin

I do not let love
pass my lips

but hope
that it shows
in every
other thing

Letting someone love you and loving the, in return is the most terrifying and wonderful part of humanity. We love despite our flaws. ❀️ Beautiful piece.

Aw, it's definitely true that we express love in more ways than saying it aloud. Beautiful work, as always.Β

this 'i love you' business must be cursed. uttering it in all seriousness is like entering the eyewall of a cyclone. if that makes sense. Romeo and Juliet would never have such a miserable end had they been less verbose. if that makes sense. (edited: autocorrection changes words must turn it off!)

I've made the mistake of allowing the word to pass my lips. I knew better, but I did it anyway. Now I'm back in the same boat as before. Sinking.
