I’d like to say…

I’d like to say…

I love you
but the words
might come out
contrite
and everything
I say to you
I want to sound
just right
then I could
use words like
want and need
but this
you already
know
so I shall
love you
in my silence
a voice
a heart
shows
for eyes
have a language
a heart
understands
I know the truth
each time
you touch my
hand
