"How Can I Tell Him?" 

The way he gazes at me 
His little boy grin 
He doesn't think I notice 
But I just hold it in 
The way his eyes will twinkle 
At the glimmer of my smile 
He doesn't know he makes my life 
A little more worthwhile. 

The things I haven't told him 
That I can't quite seem to say 
I hold them in my heart 
And I struggle every day 
To find a way to let him know 
How much he means to me 
So the truth he'll finally know 
And these things he'll finally see.
