Hush�Listen � Let me tell you what it means when I say three words I Love You. It�s so much deeper than a reaction to your body Or the stirring of my heart to the gentle way you treat me It�s the knowledge of no limit to what I would do If ever you needed me to� Beyond knowledge I know Because most of all love is what I show When I know how I feel, but can�t find word that say so I love you when I�m enchanted by your mind When I long to climb inside� your thoughts When I brush your skin but feel your soul Everything I do with unmasked affection My undivided attention � all for you My love�s real when I can list everything I love about you On demand, whenever you should ask me to I love you when I let you see my faults When I remove them from dusty vaults With fresh incentive to try to work them through And I do, without ever trying to hide ME from you I love when I think only of the best for you Leaving my own interests untended Knowing if ever you were threatened or hurt I�d protect you and bear my wounded Soldier back to safety And suffer the pain for us both If I could If I tried to save you before you drown And saw in desperation, your struggle pulled me down I know I love you because I wouldn�t let you go I love you when I write this While I�m not sure where you�ve gone And I trust you as I fervently hope you won�t stay away for long My mind dreams only of reuniting with your soul I don�t think to pull in reigns or tighten my hold Best of all my love is free and freedom to be YOU with me And constant assurance that my love will always be true I mean all of this when I say I Love You. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Poetry Contents home contact me
