Little Things

A love poem.

Little Things

2/14/15

 

The things I really want to say

My vocal chords just won’t convey

My verbal eloquence is cursed

Failing even when rehearsed

 

So, instead, I try to write

The words that never seem quite right

And attempt to guarantee

That you know what you mean to me

 

I never thought that I would know

A time unaltered by long ago

I didn’t think that I could be

This fortunate consistently

 

I love the way you look at me

Like I’m the only thing you see

And when you hold me close I’ve found

I know I’m safe with you around

 

The little things you do each day

Are what I constantly replay

I love how we don’t need to speak

To have a moment so unique

 

So, while I could continue on

I know no words that are as strong

As how I feel when I’m with you

Those little things will push us through
