True Love.
True LoveTrue love is known to but just a few.
It is a giving without asking for a return.
For many when it comes it is something quite new,
Others their whole life will for love yearn.
If you are one that has received true love,
Your happiness is shown in every deed.
You are less likely to push and shove,
And will help others when in need.
Eyes shine in a different light,
When love has come your way,
In each little thing you find delight,
Nothing is too difficult to say.
"I Love You," comes deep inside,
Some find it difficult to articulate.
Others find they want to hide,
As these three little words they hate.
I was once in a similar predicament,
These three little words were for me taboo.
Then my heart did at last repent,
I finally my Love had met you.
I know that true love is mine,
You my sweet are by my side.
Now my eyes have that particular shine,
There is nothing my face can hide.
It is a giving without asking for a return.
For many when it comes it is something quite new,
Others their whole life will for love yearn.
If you are one that has received true love,
Your happiness is shown in every deed.
You are less likely to push and shove,
And will help others when in need.
Eyes shine in a different light,
When love has come your way,
In each little thing you find delight,
Nothing is too difficult to say.
"I Love You," comes deep inside,
Some find it difficult to articulate.
Others find they want to hide,
As these three little words they hate.
I was once in a similar predicament,
These three little words were for me taboo.
Then my heart did at last repent,
I finally my Love had met you.
I know that true love is mine,
You my sweet are by my side.
Now my eyes have that particular shine,
There is nothing my face can hide.
