Lyrical Musings

around my finger your love is wound
silvered band with precious gems
- as though one could place
a monetary value on these emotions
a relationship as multifaceted as any diamond
(and my how these sparkle!)
greeting my every passing glance
(and also those which linger)
reflecting not only the light
but bringing a brightness
to my own self as a smile on my face

how is it that you don’t know how you are my everything my reason for being? how is it that you don’t see i wait with bated breath and force my sleepy head to stay awake just 5 more minutes so i can hear your voice? how is it you aren’t sure that i value none, love no one, cherish nothing above you? how is it you don’t feel that i see you with eyes full of respect and that my love for you is the deepest i could possibly know? how is it i could have let you down when i always felt that even if my actions didn’t show you knew my intent, knew what i meant with every whispered word, and reluctant goodbye i thought you’d be sure to see how you mean the world to me but i was wrong then and i am sorry now and i wish i only knew how to express these thoughts my love, my need for you in everything i do
