to say "I Love You"
While others find it easy
sometimes too easy
to say "I Love You"
see it in my eyes
or feel it with my touch
You will never
hear it on my lips.
And said goodnight
When you were really
Saying goodbye
Of all my worldly treasures
The memories I have
Of the few hours spent with you
Would be my most cherished possessions.
The time of my life
In relation to the World
Is insignificant
The time spent with you
In relation to my life
Was brief -
but not insignificant.
Today
Someone asked me
If I had forgotten you
With a moment's thought and a subtle smile
I answered no
No, I haven't forgotten
The years we shared
When you gave to me
And I gave to you
And like everything else in Life
Some was good
Some was bad
But to completely forget
Would create a void in my life
So even as I say
I'm over you
I have the strength to choose
Not to forget you.
You came into my life
Unannounced
Uninvited
But not unwanted
You came at a time that I needed
A tender smile
A gentle touch
Another's company
You came with understanding
For you asked no questions
With loving care
You healed my wounds
And nursed me to health again
Then you watched over me
Till I regained my courage
To face the World again
And in your wisdom you realized
My need to be free
So you tied no bonds
Now each night
Wherever I am
I think of you
Where ever you are
And in my Heart I repeat
"Thank You"
Listen carefully to the words of others
For often very deep truths are revealed
clothed in jest.
There are so many words
Yes there are no words
For when I look into your eyes
No words need to be spoken
And the warmth of your smile
Is a statement in itself
And how could I ever try to explain
The trembling in my body
When I touch your face
Where are no words to explain an emotion
So I open to you my mind
That you might walk
Among my Dreams and Memories
Then... and only then
You might understand my silence
