It's more than deep, bright eyes
Or a handsome face to gaze upon
Or strong and gentle arms to rest in
Or a voice warm and low
Its more than your senses can say
More than you cologne
Or your lips pressed to mine
Or your breath in my ear
Its the breath you take away
when you walk by
When you smile into my eyes
The stories you tell me of your past
The laughter you cause
that makes my sides ache
It's the rush flying through me
When you hold out your hand
When you lift my chin
When you tell me just what is on your mind
It's knowing I can trust you
And I'll be safe with you near
And knowing we can keep moving forward
Together, tucking past things away
It is everything only the deepest parts of me can explain
but those secret words are locked away
and perhaps none but you
may unlock them some day
