How Do You Know the Love Is True?

How do you know love when it's looking you in the eye?

    when he holds close and squeeze's you tight. 

    When he wipe's away your tears and say's everything's all right.

    When he kisses your lips so gentle and soft.

    When the sound of his voice melts your heart.

    When he pours his heart to you without saying anything at all.

    When over the tiniest thing's he does he makes your skin crawl.

    that is how you know love.

    When you send endless nights together while your miles apart.

     When he say's I love you by the beat of his heart.

    When his eyes never leaves your mind, and even when he's mad he seems so 
kind.

    But most of all you know the love is true when you say I love you too.
