The Language of Love
Every day I wait for you to return from work
And it becomes a celebration in my life.
As the hours pass and the time approaches
For you to come home to me, a smile
Appears on my lips and remains, along with
Memories we have blissfully shared together.
Our front door opens and I rush into your arms.
There is never enough time for us to be together.
My eyes are closed as your fingertips caress my face
Sending chills through my entire body, and I shiver.
The warmth of your love radiates from your presence
And soon my skin becomes flush with your kisses.
I wish we could remain forever in each others arms.
I love the way your eyes draw me in when I am across
The room from you, they speak to me in the language of love.
We share the same love of music; songs that contain
For us special memories of our times spent together.
The day you picked out our song 'Endless Love' holds
Such loving thoughts everytime I hear it play on the radio,
I remember dancing cheek to cheek to that melodic music
And my world spins encircled by those romantic moments.
Our days spent at the sandy beach lazing in the sun while
The sound of waves lapping the shore shared Nature's music.
We spent the afternoon until that first star appeared and like
Children we both made a spoken wish...to be happy forever.
