The Three Words


    I was born in the age of lovesongs


    But now it''s time to write one


    The words seem far too hollow

    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.
