Loving Softly
. Some love is just for two to know
It matters not what others do
it matters, just that we will know
our love is simply quiet love
no need for explanation
no need for exclamations
no shouting heard from mountains high
nor violin's, or lullabies
no magic verbs that can describe
Without crescendos to the skies
no soapbox words of declaration
no lyrics, poems, to make them sigh
or weary need for alibis...
Devotion, one we both can feel
it's us it's soft, it's real
no need for other ears to hear
or to witness, their own sign or clue
No matter what it may appear
what difference is their point of view?
What matters, is ...we know it's true
