The silent echo of your heartbeat,
matched perfectly to mine.
The way my love for you grows,
with each passing of the time.
The way a mention of your name,
brings a smile to my face.
The way your smile lights your eyes,
always making my pulse start to race.
The way my body aches for yours,
in the long hours of the night.
All the simple things you do to
make me feel as if I'm your light.
The way I start to tremble,
each time I hear your voice.
Then you stole my heart away,
as if I never had a choice.
The way you look into my eyes,
that sets my soul to burning.
The vast expanse that separates us
and keeps me always yearning.
The other part of me I was missing,
I have found in the beauty of you.
You have made me whole at last,
and given me the world anew.

For you anna... I know simple, cheesy but in its simpliest form reigns its truth and if I am to be your downfall, fall into my arms.

I believe that there is not much I can say that I haven't said before -- and this is possibly neither the right time nor the right place to repeat them. You are a very beautiful soul, and it definitely shows in your writing. And I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
