Late

I tend to be late –
but so do you –

late in saying something
like I love you

We both take our time
to let emotions seep
through thought –

before realization,
for verification

We seem to be
inevitably late
at alternating times,

hardly ever meeting
in mind, in love

Too late…

– Niebla

Too true and for Sunday Scribblings’ Late.

    Oh, hope it’s not too late.
    You did that decrescendo so well!

    Lovely poem. I hope it isn’t too late either.

    Ah, it sure seems like it works that way sometimes. Nicely written!

  4. You hit on a common truism. Many find it hard to say I love you. I like the style and brevity in your poem.
