She Smiles

She smiles
One flicker of a smile on her lips
Can evoke an everlasting sense of longing
To spend every waking minute with her in my arms

One wind gust that whips her thick moppy hair awry
Can set my heart to blissful dreaming
Of this woman who wants so much for me
Who is so strong in her heart with love for me
Completely conscious in her need to make the best of me

How can I tell her
She deserves so much more than my love from me
I change and change 
Still she suffers much for me
