Unheard Word

(Vs) I can't say I love you love's not a strong enough word It's beyond and above that It's a word never heard (Vs) I can't even describe it It can't be fathomed with ease Comparisons are few and there's none that would please (Ch) It's an unheard word, never uttered before Cannot be written, only felt and explored You can call it love, just to be assured But it's something else, it's an unheard word (Vs) Call it transcendental This intensity I feel Regard it as surpassing What we know as real (Vs) It's too deep for me to grasp but so easy to be felt It is love at its grandest yet above where it has dwelt (Bridge) How do you describe what's out of reach; beyond what you thought you could feel? What can you say to convey it's depth without making it seem unreal? (Ch) It's an unheard word, never uttered before Cannot be written, only felt and explored You can call it love, just to be assured But it's something else, it's an unheard word © L. James Tanner
