I know....I know you do...you know that.
Yes, I will...always..you know that too.
Why?A thousand reasons if not more.
I cannot, in this lifetime..express them all.

Love...certainly...but it goes even deeper.
Hard to explain...just a feeling I have.
I will sing a song to you...that is how..
For I love you enough to do just that.

Let me tell you that I love you..
Let me show you how much I will.
Let me give to you this heart true
till the rivers are dry and time is still.

Let me take you, forever hold you.
Give you comfort and much joy.
Let me want you, ever need you
for I desire to, is not just a ploy.

Can you love me, ever give me
all the feelings which are inside?
Will you take me and hold me?
Hold me close and never hide.

Are you always, always for me?
Will you stand beside me today?.
Does it happen, happen freely?
Will our love always be this way?

I can tell you countless times
that I care so deeply for you.
I can write romantic rhymes
and they all will be so true.

For I need and always want to
tell you over and over again.
That I dearly do desire you
and your heart I carry within..

Very creative.  The first part almost sounds like listening in on one half of a phone conversation.  Very touching and sincere senitments well expressed.

Mr. "M":  Absolutely beautiful.  Look behind you - she is standing there.  (If not, call me!)  Your words are so soft and tender.  All I can say is WOW!

(sigh) Yes, you can write so romantically and tell her how mcuh she loves you all the time, and she will always respond with a warm happy smile and will be so happy to love you forever! (smiles) She will always love you, sweet friend, for you have a very loving heart and she desires you all the same! This is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, you always write so beautifully! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

This is tender, like being privy to a conversation between two people...very nicely done.

Canukster...yes,  I sometimes like to let
a poem flow like inner thoughts or one sided
conversation...can say a lot that way...and
seems very personal...and it is..
