A Thousand Words

Every time I look at you,
or touch you,
or hold you,
I say a thousand words,
and every word I speak
is spoken from the depths of my soul.
Every time I look at you,
or touch you,
or hold you,
I feel a million things,
and everything I feel
is felt from the length and breath of my life.
Every time I look at you,
or touch you,
or hold you,
time stands still,
existence is infinite,
everything I’ve ever lived,
dreamed,
or stood for,
culminates in my love for you.
Every time I look at you,
or touch you,
or hold you,
I thank God for my life,
and yours,
our togetherness,
our love,
our happiness.
Everytime I look at you,
or touch you,
or hold you,
I love you
more than I ever thought possible,
and I pledge my heart,
my soul,
my life,
to letting you know.

And if only there were more men that felt this deeply, the world would be so much happier. Beautiful, James.

Oh to be loved in such a deep way.  She is very lucky, James.  Nice write.  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
