Three Little Words

Three Little Words

A Poem by Lathen Griffiths

What’s hidden yet within plain view?
Perhaps it is my love for you,
perhaps it is me not knowing
the love I feel my eyes are showing
or how at times my faltered speech
lingers soft within your reach
hoping you become aware
of the love that’s waiting there,
yet if you don’t to my dismay
perhaps I’ll have to simply say
and hope that you don’t misconstrue
three little words that end with you.

A good title Lathe. You managed greatly to rhyme the words and at the same time keep the romantic process in your poem. Enjoyed reading this poem.

I was taught that actions speak louder than words. And yet, those words, so cliched, still seem to need to be spoken daily. Words from the heart well written.

Short but very beautiful. It just shows how you can say a lot in few words. I love this piece.
