Love Is Blind

I told you “I love you” everyday,
I’d whisper every attractive thing about you,
Gently by the side of your ear.
Serenaded you while you dreamed
Called out to you when I passed you in the streets
I’d cry out your name
When I awoke in the middle of the dark…
Yet you’ll never know 
How much it would mean to me 
If only you could hear me 
And let me tell you “I love you”
I know you won’t…
But it’s true
I love you
I know you do to…
Even though I can’t see you… 

My heart speaks louder than my words
As my touch see’s what the world can not
And what I still cannot see with this,
You show me the rest…
And that’s what I love best.
To see the smile
I am not blessed to see
To see your tears
Even when they aren’t shown to me
But thankfully I do see…
& you are beautiful to me,
In my dreams.
With you dark green eyes…
Fairly tanned skin, 
& freckles that line your face…
Gentle yet elegant hands
Ones that dance with the piano
What I wouldn’t give to be able to see you
 Out of the boarder lines of my dreams…

I told you I love you everyday…
But you could never hear 
Those words I desperately need to say
If only you could hear me…
And let me admire your face…
Watch me love you…
