I Could Tell You : Love Poetry

written by Poet : Joseph


I could tell you

How beautiful you are

And all about how I fell in love

The very moment I laid eyes upon you.

 

I could tell you

How I love the purring sound you make

While your head rests on my lap

And I stroke your hair in a room

Dimly lit by the television.

 

I could tell you

How my heart leaps with joy

Every time I hear you say my name

With your soft, gentle voice.

 

I could tell you

How intelligent you are

And how much I enjoy our stimulating conversations

And how I fall more in love

With every word that comes out of your mouth.

 

I could tell you

That you are in my thoughts

Every waking hour

And in my dreams when I'm asleep.

 

I could tell you

That I'll always be faithful

And that I'll love you with a love

That shall never die.

 

But instead,

I'll tell you that I am always here

When you need a sounding board,

Or a shoulder to cry on,

Or someone to share good news,

Or even when you just need a friend.

 

And yet,

As I lay awake at night

Trying to find the exact words

To express just how I feel

And trying to understand the very nature of love,

The only thing that comes to mind

Is you.
