I love you.

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



I know that I love you
As my heart remains open
To all that you do
This promise is true

I know that I love you
As my eyes fix on you
When you talk so sweetly
Your eyes pierce me

I know that I love you
As your hands warm mine
And feeling you stay
Is akin to devine.

I know that I love you
As one kiss draws me back
Like a heavy laden horse
Faithfully carrying your slack

I know that I love you
As your surprises become weak
And your silence exposes you
From cheek to cheek
