What if she keeps saying it as the days go by and asks why you never say it back?
Words cannot begin to describe how I feel about you. "Love" is such an overused word, and it's so vague, I don't think it means the same to me as it means to you. I don't know what it even means to me.
Do I care about you? Yes.
Do I feel fantastic when we're together? Yes.
Do I look forward to seeing you when we're apart? Yes.
Can I describe these feelings in that overused four letter word? I'm sorry but I cannot. What I feel for you cannot be contained in mere words that are thrown about without caution.
I want no limits on my feelings for you.
Please do not ask me to describe them with mere words, as that will threaten to constrain them, to box them in, to keep them in your pocket. I want my feelings for you to be as boundless as the universe, as bright as the sun, as vast as time itself.
I cannot, I WILL not, put mere words on those feelings that have been indescribable since the dawn of time.
Please do not ask this of me again.
