i love you

the words that stab

the simple utterance

i once found

it was my life

i was dedicated

to loving all

and now

i feel the wrench

the splinter

 the stab

of that simple utterance

like venom

dripping off my tongue

killing my soul

killing my mind

my very devotion

and now i'm here

crying acid tears

wishing to go back

to the days

when "i love you"

never hurt



welp. how many times do i have to say that i find love so difficult? anyways, i wrote this while feeling bad about how i hadn't said i love you to my best friend for so long. i wish i had the confidence and ability to tell her how much i love her, but it's such a difficult emotion for me to feel, so i barely say it.
