Another way of saying I love you

poem by: Camilla Roberts
Written on May 03, 2015

trying to write down in words how I feel 
grasping every emotion 
twisting it round to create some devotion
trying to make sense of it all 
preventing it from being another scrawl 
of meaningless words 
of meaningless poetry
of meaningless feelings 
I want this to become my masterpiece 
to mean something to you like it does me
I want you to frame it on your wall 
but also bury it deep in your heart 
I want you to memorise word for word 
I don't want you to read it and think it's absurd 
I want you to understand these words that I write 
I want you to read it and walk into the light 
I want these words that I rhyme 
to send shivers down your spine
because what I write is written for you 
every word I write is completely true 
I just wanted to show you in less simple words 
that I love you
