How I love You

How I Love You


When I think of you,
my heart grows wings
that flutter from sheer blissfulness,
as if reaching the heavens.

When I hear your voice,
my thoughts, in their deepest sequestration,
run free in the solace of your words.

When I see your smile,
my eyes cry out
for more of its sweet comfort.

When I kiss your lips,
my being becomes complete,
and silently shouts out the perfection
of having you in my life.

Your love has swept me entirely,
and you'll know--
from the simple brush of my fingertips on your cheek,
you'll be blown away by the beating of my heart.
