He Finally Said, "I Love You"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I don't own FF8 or this poem. HA!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
As I looked into his eyes
and found his longing stare
I stopped myself from sawying words
that would show how much I care
I put my hands up to his face
To hold my feelings in
I wouldn't say the words again
to show my love for him
How much he meant to me
He put my hands away from his
and said to leave him be
I never spoke again
for fear of his deep fright
I thought it was the last time
until that blissful night
His fingers traced around my face
pushing hair away
and I was quite unprepared
for what he was to say
My heart beat quickly, my head raced on
I thought that I might cry
He looke as if he might faint-
imagine this strong guy
But never would I be more impressed
with anything he'd do
than when he took that heartfelt leap
and told me, "I love you."
