A Poem by Cassie Black
"

Difficulties in saying I Love You

"
What if I said I loved you? 
Spilled my heart on the floor 
Full of raw red flesh wounds 
That you've never seen before 

An empty echoing hollow 
Drifting through the dark days 
Is what my heart once was 
Until you set me in my ways 

Your love for me ran deeply 
Intensities I've never felt 
Only you could cause 
My concrete walls to melt 

The fire burned so brightly 
Between us across a room 
The light has dwindled now 
Fading into a dark gloom 

Each day I fall further numb 
Black is all I bleed 
What if I had told you? 
Three words is all I need

Strong poetic phase of love. Very deep imagery. The love wants love itself - but the world makes it ruined with all of darken pleasure of nights. It's a thing that's not easily found.

Keep writing!

i like this poem...the plea of wanting to hear those words...but i feel they mean little unless expressed without solicitation...

but i would spill my heart anyway...i always have.
