Beauty

How is it, that beauty could silence me When I first saw you, I was speechless I denied my reaction. I pretended I pretended that I never sat in silence staring at your photo That I never closed my eyes, to sear the image That I never breathed in slowly, to imagine your scent I knew from the second I saw you There was more than physical beauty, there was inner beauty I knew from the second I saw you, there was passion for life When I first saw you, I was speechless I couldn't find the words to describe you Because there are no words so beautiful... as you ~Rick Berry
