Things to Whisper in Your Ear
Location
Did you know that I think your heart is the most beautiful heart
and that the sound it makes is more astonishing than any symphony I will ever hear
Did you know that I think your eyes say more than any words I could ever write
and that the stories behind them are what I’ve fallen in love with the most
Did you know that I think your hands can heal what I’ve always found to be broken
and that the gentle touch you’ve always had has somehow taught me to be strong
Did you know that I think the corners of your mouth were made to rise just for me
and that the way you smile opens up a part of me that I have never known until you
(I hope that you think the way I look at you says a lot but this says even more
I hope that you think the way I smile is like a secret only for you to keep
I hope that you think the way I touch you is not about lust but about love
I hope that you think the way my heart sounds is like a song I wrote about us)
Did you know that I think and think and think
and that everything I think about always begins and ends with you:
you are the sunrise and the sunset of every day,
and you are stunning.
