There are so many words
Yet there are no words
For when I look into your eyes
No words need be spoken
And the warmth of your smile
Is a statement in itself
And how could I ever explain
The trembling in my body
When I touched your face
No words explain an emotion
So I open you to my mind
That you might walk
Among my dreams and memories
Then . . . and only then
You might understand my silence
Maybe someday I’ll be lucky enough
To hold you in my arms
Rather than just my mind, then
I’ll trade-in empty dreams
For the treasure of a lifetime
And the cold of the world
Will be shattered by your warmth.
