    Three Words

    Submitted By: Arukaino Umukoro

    Powerful words
    Twisted like cords
    Round the shape of the heart
    Squeezing, at the same time,
    Expanding this exquisite work of art
    On its sides;
    Ties that bind.

    I
    Singular, representing an individual.
    An acute sense of awareness,
    Of personality, rights and privilege;
    The subject of a sentence.

    LOVE
    Universal, a collective desire.
    All encompassing.
    As powerful as waterfalls
    Cascading down high mountains
    Into the deep soul stream,
    With splashes of emotion.

    YOU
    The object of affection.
    The centre of attention.
    Then, the only thing that matters,
    The reference point of desires.

    I LOVE YOU
    Those magical words
    Which waves a golden wand
    And places a spell on the heart
    To set a soul on fire.
