I Only Said I Love You
I only said "I
love you",
if only I'd said more.
But in that phrase "I
love you",
Is everything for sure.
It means I'll miss you dearly,
Your voice and
gentle touch.
It means I'll miss you daily,
so very, very much.
If I had more warning,
I'd have told you such a
lot,
But you went without the telling.
Much more than just a
jot.
If I had been more forthright,
And if I had
made a start.
I'd have poured out words forever,
And told you
all my heart.
But I only said "I love you",
If only
I'd said more.
But in that phrase "I love you",
Is
everything for sure.
Your Love Makes Me Complete
Your love is
like the glue,
That binds my broken heart.
And holds us both
together,
Those times we are apart.
Your smile is the sun ray,
That warms my frozen
soul.
Melting us together like
A flowing loving whole.
Your eyes are like the windows,
That reflect my
aching grief.
Displaying to the world at large
Love beyond
belief.
Your skin is like a velvet touch,
That strokes
my longing flesh.
To which I cling, as I declare,
My love for
you afresh.
Your lips are like a dark red rose,
That
glistens in the snow.
And when you place them next to mine,
They
show their love anew.
In short, you are my everything,
And every time
we meet.
My hopes, and yours, are all combined,
You make my
life complete.
And Yet
There's an emptiness in my
soul
Like the hunger pain of someone starving;
But I'm not
hungry for food,
I'm hungry for you.
There's a blindness in my eyes
Like the
darkness of someone who can't see;
But I'm not in the darkness of
light,
I'm in the darkness of your absence.
There's a silence in my voice
Like the silence
of someone who can't speak;
But I'm not silent through being
mute,
I'm silent because I can't speak to you.
There's a deafness in my ears
Like the deafness
of someone who can't hear;
But I'm not deaf through not
hearing,
I'm deaf because I can't hear you.
