The French say Je T'aime, Greeks Sagapo Para poli What do these words mean to me They translate to English I Love You A phrase that says your heart is true However wonderful those three words are They fail to convey what I mean by far There are no words that I can say That embody what I feel today My soul has been touched deep as can be No words are known for what this means to me Can I breathe without any air The night sky without stars, now thats unfair Can a tree grow so beautiful and green If the suns beams, it never has seen A lawn with no grass, a beach with no sand Now thats more than I could stand Thats how I feel without you near Like driving a car with no wheel to steer My heart adrift in an endless sea Thats how it feels when you are away from me For no heart beats in my chest No time to lay for a rest My soul keeps searching until you are found When my heart starts beating it's thunderous sound Saved again from the clutches of death Given one more chance to take a breath To drink once more from your soul That elixr of life that takes it's toll You give me so much, what can I say or do With words so inadequate, as I Love You |

![]() (sigh) Oh David, this is lovely, sweet friend, those three words are indeed cliche yet they are those which should always be treasured and the centerpiece of all that is love, of course ones feelings should be elaborated from that grand design! (big hugggssssss) This is wonderfully honest, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet David, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Thank you all so very much for your replies. I Love You is sometimes overused. Simply for the lack of any word or phrase that can compare. Thank you all again, it is comforting to know that there is so many others who feel so strongly. (HUGS) Dave |
