The Three Words


    I was born in the age of lovesongs


    But now it''s time to write one


    The words seem far too hollowYou might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.


    The platitudes so crude


    Was there ever three words so overused


    As simple ''I love you''.


    It''s a call to action. Romance''s grand refrain.


    The culmination of something so much greater


    That thoughts of loss and gain.


    And yet we try to capture it


    Butterfly meet the pin.


    A net of words, flawed, absurd.


    And still we try to grasp


    The subtleties of a human heart


    As if to make it ours.
