Four letters

Original Submission by Kayla Zerf

Those four letters

Letters with so much power

They allow a heart to

bloom into a flower

It's not just a feeling

It's a person

It has healing

Those four letters

Longing for someone

Over looking their flaws

because you are so

Very sure that this is your forever and

More

These four letters

Make me say

That I'll choose you over and over again

that here forever I'll stay

and I pray that those four letters may never make us sway or drift away

These four letters L-O-V-E

Make you bound to me
