(to the one I truly love & I grow to love daily)  
 
That is how I feel about you. 
You cannot question my love. 
If you do… 
I do not know the start.  
I do not know how far it stretches… 
So please… 
Just know that I love you. 
 
I have grown to love you. Your every being. 
From your smile to the tears 
I have never seen in your eyes. 
From your desires to your dreams, I love you. 
That is how I feel about you. 
You cannot question my love. 
But if you do… 
I do not know the start. 
I do not know how far it stretches… 
So please… 
just know that I love you. 
 
From your deadly sensual kisses 
To the feel of my fingers in your hair 
To your steamy breath on my skin. 
I love you. 
But besides all these… I want to 
Live to see my wrinkled fingers 
Running through your grey hair. 
 
And still…I will still love you. 
Like the day I first saw you 
When your beauty was on stage 
And I was the only one at that contest 
Who saw a vision of us together. 
I do not know how far my love stretches… 
I do not know where it started. 
 
So please… 
I am out of words.
