Three Word Phrase

I could tell you, you are my sun
or I could say that you have my heart
but such words are over done
and of this drivel I'll have no part.
I could tell all of my friends
you're prince charming here at long last
but I know that story ends
and I don't want this to cease so fast.
I could be jealous and hold near
and say I am you're friend and lover.
I could call you honey and dear
and say you can't run to another.
But why should I waste all my time
if I didn't trust you to hold true?
And what are words with good rhyme
if they don't fit the mystique of you?
I don't want an ever after
like Cinderella with no pains.
I want the tears with the laughter
as I want to stand strong when it rains.
I want to work through all the muck
all the while praying that this is it,
hoping that with some time and luck
it'll end the game with a good hit.
Yet with all that I can confess
there is one thing which I still hold back.
Because it is hard to address
you with three words, my courage lacks.
Everyday I wish even more,
to say this phrase than the day before.

Author notes

This is for my Boyfriend if ya'll couldn't guess. It took about an hour to write and it's still really driving me nuts because it just feels like I'm not saying what I want to say in my poems, like I'm not using the right words. Anywho I'm putting one together for my best friend too and that one is proving just as hard to write.

    I really like this poem - it is sweet and loving - beautiful flow and interesting rhyme I think in the last line 'then' should be 'than' - but that is tiny - I'm sure that this dedication will be loved!

    Keep writing

    I think this is very nice. There may be a few parts where some words or phrases don't seem to be the "perfect" ones, but I think most of this, especially in the beginning ran very very smoothly. I think I may have been going through some honesty withdrawel! I found this refreshing.
