Three Words

There’s something I need to say

but I can’t put it in words.

When you told me that you loved me

I got scared.

Scared that I would love you back.

I look for reasons not to love you

but there are none.

I know how I feel for you

but I can’t say it

for if I did you would run.
That you wouldn’t care what I felt for you.

But as I sit here and think

there are three words I can say

that mean what I feel for you.

They are, I love you.

Those three words alone mean

so much to me.

I don’t know why I feel this way.

It scares me .

Those three words mean so much

yet I can’t show them.

Those three words,

I love you.
