Simple Words

If I could write something
Profound for you, I would.
All I have, are these simple words.

If I knew how,
I'd describe the light in your eyes..
(They sparkle like the stars, like diamonds, like fire..)
Sadly, there's nothing good enough...

If I could,
I'd describe your voice.
(Like a melody, like a lullaby, like an angel's)
Yet, nothing quite fits...

If I knew how,
I'd describe your heartbeat...
(The most important sound in my world, a soft meter to our time)
But nothing seems to work...

If I knew how,
I'd tell you how much you mean to me...
(I need you more than air, more than water, more than my soul)
But all I have, are these simple words.

I love you.
