Love Language


So many languages spoken for love 
So many find each other like a glove 
I know your mother tongue yet not a word 
I try to find a word that can be heard 

Your body speaks to me and I can hear 
Your eyes draw me in but I live in fear 
I must arrange a sentence to explain 
I trust emotions will then hold the rein 

Come to me, allow me to please explain 
Come and allow my words to entertain 
I speak to you in kind and show my hand 
I try to tempt you with a script that’s grand 


I flatter but my heart is driven snow 
I will word in language for love to grow
