And whatever word is written on this page
Might not be read by the eyes they’re created for
Might not be savored by the beautiful mind they’re aching for

But still they keep falling out of me to land upon this piece of paper
and hold the wish within them to be once held in your hands
Your eyes caressing every letter
and your soul embracing every word

To watch your eyes fill with understanding
Your lips curve into a grin
Knowing I’ve written my heart on this page for you
and watch you discover all the love that’s spilling over the edges of my being
To feel your hands hold me and your lips brushing against mine
Telling me without a single word that you understand

That moment will be worth every word unread by your eyes before
Will be worth every insecurity and ache with which they were written
