I tried to write a poem for you
To express just how I feel,
But the words they would not come to me,
Despite my obvious zeal.

I struggled and I struggled
To find the words to say,
But the words they would not come to me,
Although I tried all day.

I tried my very hardest
to find the words to write,
But the words they would not come to me,
So my mind gave up the fight.

The only words I have for you
Are simple, but they're true,
The only words I have for you:
"My darling, I love you."

There's nothing else that I can say
To make it clear to you;
I love you more than life itself,
And I hope you love me too.

In your earnestness the right words came.
Though it really taxed your brain,
If you had only thought to start,
And the threshhold of your heart!

Good poem,  and welcome Ruthie J.,

Ruthie, Great!! You expressed my thoughts completely, except you put it to poetry just beautifully. A poem to say "I love you", in such a cute way. Marcy
