I'm not sure how to explain
Explaining something
By shrugging it off
And acknowledging
That I say 'it' so often
and to so many
that I'm more than used
To never having 'it'
returned.
All and all, that is an
Explanation.
But, how true it is,
I can't really say
myself. We're all so much
better at lying
to ourselves,
And much better at
lying to others
About things turned
inconsequential
That mean more than
moons, or stars.
And, it just feels good
To hear 'it'.
More so
When you're not expecting
And waiting for
Explanations
For why not.

hello there... as you said in your critique, you were talking about saying "I love you" in an ultra-feminine way... too bad i'm not a guy, because that's not what i got the first time i read it.... i can't say what exactly it was that i thought when reading it, but i did like the overall feel of the poem... and after reading your critiques, i understand now. ^_^
I like the poem a lot, keeping posting, and feel free to check my site sometime too. ^_^
