For Her

These words unspoken
A vow unbroken

I made it in silence
Kept my thoughts quiet

But the way I feel
I cannot conceal

You’re a rare gemstone in the sea
It’s you I want right next to me

Everywhere I am and everywhere I go
I care for you and love you so

When I look at you, you’re all I see
It’s you I want my life to be

You’re always so kind
And you’re always on my mind

My heart jumps, like someone pulled a lever
So if I say I love you, can I keep you forever?


*For her, and only her
