Listen to poem:

Thought You Needed To Know

words cocked and loaded
it’s only fair that
I explain ~

when I say 'I love you'
I truly mean that
you’re beautiful throughout

appreciating how I feel
when I’m with you
in spite of us being apart

what I treasure most
is that warm sensation
of being close to you                    
          
if only in my heart
