When The Sun Sets

When the sun sets,
as it inevitably does each day,
I try to think
of a better way
to say I love you,
and that I really care.
And if I care to dare,
when the sun arises
the next day,
I happily say
I found a new way
to joyfully say
I love you.
But I never really do find
a better way,
than to simply say
I Love You.
Can it be
there is
no better way?
So once again
today I say
I love you,
in the simplest way.

Those are the only words you need. The three most beautiful words in the English language. Beautiful to say…even more beautiful to hear

(smiles) Awwwwwww, I know this feeling all so well, sweet friend, it feels it is too obvious and simplistic every time we say those three words, yet that is the most beautiful and effective way to confess love and it explains it all! (kiss on cheek) This is sooooooo sheer and beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Very touching and subtly written to get your
warm and gentle point across to a love one.

Tracey, yes, the three most powerful, under-rated words. But one night my daughter said they are over-rated and overused, and  sometimes empty hollow words. I'm happy to report she wasn't referring to me when I she said that.

Noah, hugs, and yes, they are powerfully important words.

Powers, nice to meet you! thank you so much for your comment.

Lyra, I really never have found a better way, except through daily actions, which generally speak louder than words. But I sure do like to hear those words once in a while.
