She tells me I do not
say those three magic words
‘I love you’ enough
but I believe that saying it too much
makes it lose it’s potency, repetition
renders it weak and uninspired.
She tells me constantly,
expecting reciprocation
which she does not get.
I refuse to be prompted,
knowing the sentiment will
issue from the voicebox
and not from the heart.
I wonder which source
she would prefer.
