I'd love to tell you

By Karyn Indursky

I'd love to tell you

just how I feel. 
I love you from the depths of my heart, soul, and mind. 
My love for you is like the rose you bought for me. 
It expands as it grows and gets nutured. 
My love isn't just one color, but several 
like the shades of the pink petals 
and the parts that are dark are the parts you've touched. 
The medium shades are the ones you're starting to see, 
leaving the light shades for what you will see one day. 
The leaves are the obstactles we have or had. 
The stem is us as one having these attachments 
in our relationship. 
We'll blossom in time, but in the mean time 
we'll just look pretty and get past those obstactles.
