I�d write you heartfelt prose,
Send you,
A single rose.
Each and every day,
If only,
You would look my way.
I sit and watch you cry,
Salty tears,
From your blue eyes,
I�d taste your sorrow.
Steal your pain,
Amidst the charcoal clouds of rain.
I�d hold you close in my strong arms.
On frigid winter nights,
I�d keep you warm.
I�d tuck you in with a cottony caress,
I�d show you
only tenderness.
I�d whisper softly �I love you,�
And, no never, would
I make you blue.
I�d kiss your silky lips, sugar sweet,
I�d offer up,
my heart complete.
I�d kneel before you on one knee,
And ask you,
�Would you marry me?�
And from that day forevermore,
You�d be the one,
That I adore.
I�d Serenade you with love songs.
Love you gently.
Love you long.
Love you until my final breath.
And wait in heaven
for you, after my death.
