A Simple Kind of Love

A simple love when you are there. 
To say hello with hope and cheer.
A smile to light my darkest day.
Yes, that is a simple kind of love.

A kind of love that strokes the heart.
Making one feel alive and young.
With every touch you create in me,
Butterflies I can not ignore, soaring free.

Sharing just the mundane things,
Turn my day to shining gold.
Words are never enough between us.
Our intimate exchanges are pure bliss.

Whispers of joy creep into my being.
How can one fight off what I feel?
With a quiet little voice I let it reside.
It lies within my deepest core.

A simple kind of love, why can’t you see?
I try to show you day by day.
Sometimes with my words or actions.
Yes, a simple kind of love is what I feel.
