He whispered three words,
but nobody's ears heard.
He wanted her to know,
but he failed to show.
What he felt, so with it he dealt.
So he said it a little louder,
so much more prouder.
So the whole world would know,
what he couldn't show.
He knew she had heard,
Those three precious words,
for she smiled a smile,
that made it all worth while.
I love you, he sighed
I love you too, she replied
Those were the words the lovers said.
And those were the words that you, dear read.., have read.
