Tender the touch that I feel in you
an open gift of the heart of two,
that join as one with love and devotion
upon the crest of harmonious emotion.
Soft and gentle the eyes that gaze
into the other in special ways;
to speak words without any sound
and echo the feelings that I have found.
A whispered caress on a moment's breeze
to keep me afoot but weak in the knees;
and in the stars, your heart will shine
a nocturn's beam I shall claim as mine.
An admiration that has hid within
released for a new day to begin;
that no matter the distance, no matter the miles
you are to me, the reason for my smiles.
