Maybe What I Write

I tell her I love you

in hope that

through the escape of my voice

through the definition of these words

shell realize …..how close I feel to her

Yet she doesn’t and asks

” why do you love me so much? “

so I tell her I love you …so much

because your eyes are open windows to the soul that connects with mine and I get to see its reflection every day

because your lips are the softest forms of cables that give jolts of electricity to my heart to keep me moving

because your smile sends a light that illuminates my day so I can see my path better

because your hands caress so slow that the chills my body develops are simply a mere visual to the shivers my soul feels

and because you are you and the love that I love you with for being simply yourself ….is more than the words  ” so much ” could ever define

so I wait to see if she understands and she ask, ” why do you love me so much? ”

perhaps what I say …. I love you…isn’t enough

perhaps what  I write ….will be….

so presently as I write …I pray the future holds….an understanding….

of how much….I love her.
