Secret Love

How should I explain
Without sounding insane,
When your heart knows
What’s deep in your soul
Can it simply be placed on a page?

What emotion surpasses love
With an intensity untold?
What faith towers devotion
These words I do not know.
How can I attest to loyalty
That exceeds any measure,
How do I speak of honor
Greater than time spans forever?

If I knew of these words
I would say them to you,
Because, My Love, they are my feelings
Heart-felt, genuine and true.

So how do you tell someone
They are more precious than life,
How does one adequately express
What words cannot describe?

Do you have someone who loves you
As I have spoken of,
Do they have for you these feelings
I can't believe it's so.

Do you have someone who loves you
In your life who makes you happy,
Do they fulfill your dreams and fantasies
Or do you find them somewhat lacking?

Do you have someone who loves you
Who comforts you when you're sad,
Who supports you in all your endeavors
Is always there to lend a hand?

Do you have someone who loves you
Who does not fault you
Or assigns blame,
Who sees you as perfection
And would not change a thing?

Do you have someone who loves you
As unbelievable as it may seem,
Would trade their every possession
Just to share the air you breathe?

Do you have someone who loves you
Who right or wrong is by your side,
Who would lay down their life for you
And never know sacrifice?

Please, please come to me
Can’t you see we are meant to be,
I need you, you need me
It is our fate, our destiny.

But time he is a villian
Every second he steals away,
Ensuring the future forever fleeting
We cannot let it go to waste.

So come to me, My Darling
Our secret unmask as truth,
Come take the hand of the one
Created to be with you.

Listen to your heart, deny no longer
What you know is absent in your life,
Don’t cast me aside, don’t condemn us forever
To living separate lives.
