PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The way joy flickers in your eyes,

when upon your lips a smile resides,

causes my heart to leap.  Love abides

deep within me, waiting to be

the gift you shall treasure always.

The way you dry a child’s tear

causes my doubts to disappear—

for it is then that I am sure

that I want to spend the rest of my days

at your side, loving only you.

My love shall never die

for you are the only one for me.

Yet, even though I try,

I have yet to confess my love to you.

How to confess my love, I have no clue;

yet the way joy flickers in your eyes,

when upon your lips a smile resides,

causes my heart to leap.  Love abides

deep within me, waiting to be

the gift you shall treasure always.
