Today, I Love You

I am such a sap....

I missed you today and thought of you often

The clock telling me, “a little longer” in ticks

I remembered your jokes and laughed at you often

And I could picture you laughing at my side

 

So let me cling to you a little longer

With my head cupped by your shoulder blades

So let me smell you just a while longer

Inhaling the clean scent of your neck and hair

 

I thought today of how days are numbered like pages

How seasons change, but then time is up and it’s a memory

I thought today of how love can be measured in pages

Can I write you a novel just to prove it so

 

So let me stare at your smile a little longer

I’ve yet to count every line of your laugh

So let me study your eyes a while longer

I’ve yet had the time to savor the dusty clouds

 

I thought today of the love I have for you

So hush while I tell you in orchestrated word

I thought today of the love I have for you

So hush and read my gift of words

So you're a sap huh? Wouldn't have known looking at your writing :P

This is really beautiful and "sappy" - lol -
Words flow like a river of heartwarming and lovely emotions. It does not falter and stray of course. It is always on a straight path into his heart.

Knowing how lovey dovey you are, I have to point out the lines,
"I thought today of how love can be measured in pages
Can I write you a novel just to prove it so" - a love contained in pages of a book is surely to last, but it makes that love finite and I'm sure you don't think love is finite :D

Very nicely done.

Such a beautiful, lifting work! What joy to have someone you love so much.. someone who lights the night like day. You celebrate this joy with the wonder of your words so we all feel the happiness in you!

maybe you're a sap *wink* but you are also very talented! this flowed so lyrically, and was never overflowery or suffered from what i call "the icks". you spoke in a clear language that was beautiful to watch unfold.

well done
