Only When You were the one who came to me Defined your thoughts exquisitely With head layed soft upon your chest You comforted my heart’s unrest You lifted me to heights above The common attributes of love You let the sun shine on my face You let your words touch and embrace You looked below the outer sheen And saw what no one else had seen Below the face, beneath the skin You found a beauty deep within Only when the storm had past When I had found some peace at last And true contentment on my face Did you then take me in embrace Elizabeth Santos |

This is so beautiful and tender, a perfect expression of love! There are no words to add to what has already been said. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

You expressed such a tender love. Left me with a warm feeling. Tossing words like wishful coins into the deep well of an open heart. R. fox |

You looked below the outer sheen And saw what no one else had seen Below the face, beneath the skin You found a beauty deep within I really love that.......this is great writing...... Jon |
