Words of Love

You say the words of love not often pass my lips but all the words I would amass over my life can't possibly convey your beauty. As before the love holds sway over the words of tongue and pen. I try to find a flawless language whereby I could speak diamonds, moons, expanses, times about your loveliness, to pick up rhymes with your saliva's mead, to get a font out from the depth of hell by which I want so badly to write down those few words of my love I'll never say to you.

There is an irony that one who is so proficient with words is unable to utter the words that are most important. This is an excellent first offering to the soup.

The heart is such an emotionally fragile thing that it breaks like glass or it can endure many storms with a strength it thought unimaginable. This is written beautifully Kurt. Congratulations on your win. xxoo

I think, "win" may be too strong of a word in such situation) Thank you very much, Connie. I like you liked it)
