When The Ink Runs Dry All Is Lost

"I love you..."

To feel weak in the arms of the man you love
Contently playing with the necklace he gave you
Knowing he tried so hard to make it perfect
Him knowing even though he made a mistake its still perfect to you
A small chain so delicate like your heart when you met him
Scared to fall in love and move to the next steps
First its movies, then you let your guard down go to dinner
Talk, and slowly fall in love, and no matter how hard you try
You cant stop it, with every word you know your heart is falling
Then you hear those words come from his mouth "I love you"
Your breath stops in your chest your heart pounds
Your eyes water and you know you are not ready to say those cherished words back
Every time you hang up the phone you hear those words "I love you"
You can't help but want to cry, all you can say is I know
Then one day to even your own amazement you can't help but say
"I love you too" and in that moment everything you have tried to protect
In case it lost your in to deep and you don't know if you can swim back out
You just hope he'll swim there with you
