Three Words

The hardest things

To say in

Life are shorter

Than you’d think.

 

Short sentences can

Be difficult to

Say when they

Convey so much.

 

All you need

Is three little

Words to make

Somebody’s smile grow.

 

Any three words

Will work just

Fine as long

As they’re important.

 

It’s hard at

First to say

These things that

Mean so much.

 

But once you’ve

Said them everything

Will seem easier

In your heart.

 

The most important

Phrase of all

Is one I

Have never said.

 

When the time

Is right I’ll

Know because I

Will feel it.

 

That magic moment

In my life

When all else

Seems so small

 

All that matters

Is here and

Now when my

Voice speaks loud

 

These three words

Are simply just

 

I

Love

You
