I Love You Poem ~ Love
by Paul Curtis

love
it's such a small word
a misused word
a throw away word
used as a panacea
tell someone "i love you"
and everything is supposed to be forgiven
but love
is too small a word
for what i feel
too small for what i want to express
the love i feel
is immeasurable, infinite
in its depth
in its quality
in time
in it's all encompassing nature
it colours everything
all i say, all i do
yet to express my feeling all i can say is
"i love you"
it's just so inadequate
for what i want to express
my need for you
my never being parted from you
to be joined forever
in everyway
but i don't have the word to express it
i don't have the vocabulary
i just have love
