Beyond the Skin

Words will never speak loud enough,
what I need my heart to say.
But it's you that keeps it's beat
from worlds so far away.

I see what lies inside your soul,
beauty beyond the skin.
Lost I'd be without you now,
for you've taken my heart in.

You've held my spirit, oh so close
and captured both my good and bad.
If not for your golden warmth,
I'd be left alone and sad.

An angel in my heart, you've been;
no other way I wish it to be.
Your beauty goes beyond the skin,
it's just so plain to see.

And when I say I love you
no truer words I say.
For in my heart you will remain
until my dying day.

Author notes

I asked you if you liked me, you said no. I asked you if I was pretty, you said no. I asked you if i was in your heart, you said no. I asked you if you would cry if I walked away, you said no. So I walked away... you grabbed my arm and said... I don't like you, I love you... You're not pretty, you're beautiful... You're not in my heart, you are my heart...And I wouldn't cry if you walked away, I would die... I love you....Unknown

    Third stanza is my very favorite but this entire piece speaks love, like the kiss of the butterfly, barely felt upon the skin, but never forgotten in the heart...gold from me, but I am not the contest owner. Best of luck. Peace, Rhonda
