Sometimes
My lips are sealed,
My tongue is tied
And sometimes
Hands can’t reach
To hold you tight
And not all feelings
Are expressed
But look into my eyes,
Read the words unsaid,
The feelings not spelt out
Dive deeply into my heart
Every time you will find
That love is there
Love is always there!
Yesterday you looked into my eyes
And said, “You are special”
I thought about it and told,
“I don’t think, I am special
But I want to be special for you”
You insisted, “You are special”
Today, I decided
To be special for you
But do I have anything to offer
Except a heart full of love
A friendship to last a lifetime
And a promise to be there
As long as you let me be!
Your love is like summer rain
And it touches my heart so gently
Calming and soothing like a balm
Easing the daily hitches in life
It comes without invitation
When I least expect it
Creeping in like a dream,
Bringing such joy to my life.
Fear is what stops you
Crushes your will to go on
Makes you cry alone in the night
Wither your beautiful dreams
Face your fears and break free
Find that wings which takes so far
Find the light that shines so bright
Let your dreams soar so high
