Love You
December 6, 2022
“Love you” (2)
Two small words (3)
Quiet and calm (4)
So smooth and sacred (5)
It unfolds off your tongue (6)
Twists your stomach into knots (7)
Like a rock-hard pretzel (6)
Thoughts engulf your brain (5)
What did I do? (4)
I screwed up. (3)
Oh no. (2)
“I love you” (3)
Now, see the change? (4)
Much more meaningful (5)
Thoughts avalanche your brain (6)
Caterpillars turn into (7)
Moths that flutter around inside (8)
You are almost too caught up (7)
Practically forget (6)
To express it back (5)
“I love you too” (4)
