Signing Love

I try to look at life head on,
On some days I want to be gone.
Gone to a place far from the crowd,
Crowd out sounds in my head so loud.
Loud noise I cannot bear because I fear,
Fear, for speech is noise I cannot hear.
Hear what my lips and my fingers say,
Say that you accept what I sign today.
Today I simply just want you to know,
Know this dear heart,  I do love you so.
