Love Letter

If I wrote a love letter
And in the wrong hands it fell
Would the reader of words
Be able to tell

What I meant to express
With the words on the page
How deep feelings go
How my hearts still amazed

What's funny with love
Is that it's brought on by fate
It's not felt on purpose
And no recipe makes

So selfless the act 
To give of your heart
There's a chance it could break
Be torn all apart

If I expressed how I felt
Without adding your name
Could they give as their own
Without any change

Try as I might
To get you to see
I love you so much
You just need to believe
