Deep in the heart

0 posted 2000-12-17 01:54 PM


Just the two of us
committed to each other
no reservations have we
only longing resides here
where other thoughts once called home

There is one small word
that talks only about me
and that word is "I"

I give you my life
take my heart for it is yours
I shall need it not
uconditionally yours
tke tenderly to your care

Yet another word
speaks so emotionally
and that word is "love"

You give me your love
I cherish it forever
I give you my love
and you have humbled me so
you take my love as your love

There is a third word
that does not talk about we
and that word is "you"

You whom I adore
the reason for my being
you on pedestal
far above all others here
you, the woman of my dreams

Three words, I love you
what more can I say my love
I love you, I do.

< !signature-->

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

Yanno...I've been thinking on this one, and for the past few days, I have been pondering that there is no way to improve upon the simple words ...i love you...not when they are said by the right person. Simple, sweet and profound poetry for the heart.

Can they ever be said often enough to the person we love the most? For some those words go unheard...for others unsaid...but for some, no words need be said when all of the action is there...for every action levels a reaction in kind...

Well done Interloper...

Interloper,

Beautifully said and to the point.

I agree ... just no better way.

Poeminister~
Thank you.  Glad you liked it.

maxtec1~
My first time to hear from you.  Thanks for the read.

Sunshine~
I think the words must be said in addition to showing by action.  We are multi-sensory, emotional beings and no one form of communication works to perfection by itself.  We must show our love by action, speak our love with words, and show our love by touch... so it says here  

Charisma~
Thanks for the wonderful words.  

DarkAngel~
Romance is good, isn't it?


LoneWolf~
My first time to hear from you.  Thanks.


SEA~
Yes, you are one of the very special people I care about liking my work.


snowpants~
I am so happy you love it so. WOW!


nakdthoughts~
Your words move me.  Thank you

Wasn't disagreeing...they should always be said...and then followed through...{~,^}...but some think because they think it is "enough"...sad to say, hey?

Tell me, show me...I think my ancestors had a bit of Missouri...

"and you have humbled me so"

I don't know what it was about this line...but my heart stopped...

It is so true when you love someone...

I can't say enough...Lovely!..Beautiful!...and humbling..


I love the time
and in between
the calm inside me
in the space
where I can breathe...
