Better With Time

It feels like forever, but its still brand new.

Still in the infant stages,

of you getting to know me

and me getting to know you.

The road traveled may not be easy,

but I will assure you:

we will get better with time.

As we grow together we will learn

what makes us smile and what makes us sad.

As we explore together we will look back

and reminisce about the good times we had.

We’ll make each other better, stronger.

Standing together in the darkness with the knowledge

it wont endure for much longer.

Life has so much in store for us,

think of it as a roadtrip…

“happiness or bust!”

Im already excited, and I hope you are too,

at all the possibilities for this relationship

that is new.

It may not always be smiles,

but it certainly wont be all tears.

Theres no reason to fear,

because I trust and believe

we will get better with time.

When Words Fail Me

When all words fail me,

let me show you I love you through my eyes.

When they shine at your presence,

or gaze at your beauty, oh my!

How you satisfy me.

As my eyes gloss with desire,

I’ll use them to say the words:

I love you.

When all words fail me,

let me show you I love you through my smile.

When it greets you at our hellos,

or tops off the perfect moment between us.

Nothing else is needed.

As it fills you up with happiness,

I’ll use my smile to say the words:

I love you.

When all words fail me,

let me show you I love you through my hugs.

My embrace symbolic of my heart opening to receive you,

and cloak you in my warmth.

Relax there, you are safe.

As you seek comfort in my touch,

my arms will say the words:

I love you.

So never worry or doubt how I feel.

Because when the words fail me,

through my actions I will show you

that I love you.
