Every Second Beat
If I had a thousand pages,
I could never name them all,
The reasons that I love you,
For the list would be too tall.
I love you for the melody,
I hear within your voice.
The way your blue eyes hold me,
A captive, but by choice.
I love you for your gentle hands,
That melt away my pain.
I love you for your loving heart,
That made mine beat again.
I love you for your loving smile,
With which my old heart soars.
These are some of the reasons,
Every second beat is yours.
