Every Time

It's the little things in life
That bring  such warmth into my heart
The things that others just call 'normal'
Things they never set apart

But I remember each 'I love you'
Every time you called me sweet
Every hug you wrapped me in
Every time that we would meet

I recall your tone of voice
The words so coated with concern
And even still I cannot fathom
How on earth your love I earned

Ever since I can remember
Life has been so dark, so cold
That every little act of kindness
Shakes my very heart and soul

Though you may think it goes unnoticed
I'd give my life just to repay
All the little things you do
Each time you chase the dark away

Really beautiful depiction of what love is and how it can matter to someone who doesn't see it as much. I love your way with words as they transcend in my spirit in so many ways. Great job!

Wonderful. So sweet and heart melting. I can very much relate. The last 2 stanza are my favs.

This is beautiful. There's a certain tenderness about it, as it brings to light the sweet thoughtful actions of another it shares it's own gentle and truly beautiful nature. This love feels perfect. Great piece:)

This was a good poem. And I feel like this was written from your soul...because it all has to do with the memories...and I was drawn to this poem. I will add this to my favorites. Thanks for sharing. :)

Many a time…I felt like this while reading your poem….that..
You and me have a lot of similarity…
In the emotional realm….
The emotions..and the ways..we look at them….are very much similar..
I don’t know…why I feel so…
But when I read your poems…many a time I felt that…I am reading my mind…
Touched me your lines…too much…
I don’t know how to express…what I feel….
