Serenade me

I would ask you to serenade me

With your perfectly unsteady voice

that could fill my ears with the sound of what love might be

I would ask you to serenade me 

With words of passion and ecstasy that have such meaning 

as they make my cheeks as rosy as the blood pumping through my heart

while I confess what true feelings I have for you

I would ask you to serenade me

but you already have

Through the way you pour out your heart and soul

explaining the joys of your own life and making me enjoy it with you

Your words, your tone, your laugh

and even your silence

serenades me

with the beauty of your endless mind 

that I'd like to explore every moment I'm with you

because in your presence I am lifted to a higher place

A place where I too can pour out my heart and soul

explaining the joys of my own life and helping you enjoy them with me

my words, my tone, my silence

in perfect rhythm with yours and we are a peace with it till they become

our words, our tone, our silence

A loud silence, a deafening silence, a beautiful rhythmic silence that

serenades me
