I Love You

There are three simple words
That have the power to leave me
    Shaking.
Those words can produce beauty,
Deception, war, or more.
They can overturn cars
   Slice open wrists
   Saw through secrets.
The can shatter hearts, like
Crystal vases thrown against walls.
And yet,
They lead you to dream of a smiling future
   Rich with technicolor.
They tear off clothes and explore
   Every curve
   Every inch of skin
   Every moan that they create.
They can be
   whispered into your ear
   pondered inside your head
   shouted up to the sky
   or whimpered at times of need.
They are an exquisite revelation
   Of all the mysteries
   That wander around your mind.
Those words can burn the blood
Streaming in your veins.
They can maximize your heart speed
   Tint your cheeks
   Put a smile on your lips.
They can compose harmonious music
That rushes to your soul.
Those words contain an entire spectrum
   Of insecurities, wishes,
   And endless possibilities.
I'm hoping that
Whenever I utter those three words
Into your ear,
You feel the best, breath-taking emotions
That race through my bones
Whenever you say them to me.
