Poetry: Expressions of love

I stammered as I spoke

Not knowing what to say

Worried he'd think it was all a joke

I am not good at expressing myself this way

So I thought I'd write him a note

Telling him how much I care

Passion embodied in every word I wrote

Yet, words alone cannot express what I want to share

Gently he placed his arm around me

And kissed me on the cheek

Then I knew our hearts would agree

On something which we would never speak

Love is not always a spoken word

It can be a hug, a feeling, or a smile

It is not always seen or heard

It's a warm feeling that stays with us awhile
