Deeper

Some describe love as simply colorful...

When you can feel 
The weight of your heart
When she says, "I love you",
When she holds your hand 
And whispers in your ear.
When you can feel her smile 
From across the room
And know she's thinking about you,
You know that what you have
Is deeper than color.

When you make mistakes
And she makes you 
Feel better about yourself, 
When you can just be you
And she's content
When you can go home and relax 
Because the greatest woman 
In the world is yours.
Then you know that what you have
Is deeper than color,
And better than heaven.
