She's the soft touch on your cheek,
Tender skin that sends chills creeping...
She's the delicate petal lips
Fragile kisses that keep you reaching...
Her eyes have begun to sparkle,
And you know who they're shining for...
She's the reason you awake each day,
Each second with her passing, begging for one more...
A whisper that spills in through your soul,
And speaks of everything beautifully you...
When she tilts her head and softly speaks
'I love you', you know it's true...
She's the blooming orchid reaching for the sun,
Tended to and cared for as to help it reach new heights...
Amazing how one simple caress,
Could end a thousand fights...
You see something deep in her,
Something perfectly breathtaking...
You see it in her eyes, feel it in her touch,
Even sometimes you can almost hear her heart breaking...
To know she'll always be there,
That rock so sturdy and strong,
She'll be the one to tell you she's right,
Even when you know she's wrong...
Care for the breakable orchid,
Help to make it grow...
And know that when she looks at you,
It's her heart she's letting show...

You don't love a woman because she is beautiful... a woman is beautiful because you love her.

Your beauty unknown
To yourself but not me
I said you were perfect
You felt differently
For it didn’t matter
What packaging you had
I loved what's INSIDE
The reasons myriad -
You have used the ink of your soul while describing her beauty and the paper you made from this great nature..I love its magic..just wonderful...
