Stark Words

Stephanie Alford
My smile is
No longer fake
But rather
Full of sincerity
I was almost
Asphyxiated
By the words
When I said
I love you
To him
For the first time
Because he was
The first one
Who meant them
When he said it
To me
And I shall carry
Those words with me
To my grave

I've returned from my little emotional sabbatical. Much better now.  View profile
