I love you

I love you ........ I whisper it
and wonder at the feelings it unleashes.
I love you ........ I whisper it
and know that you can't hear the words.
I love you ........ I think this thought
Knowing you feel these emotions too.
I love you ........ I think this thought
and watch you sleeping alongside me.
I love you ........ I risk saying it outloud
and nervously meet your eyes.
I love you ........ I risk saying it outloud
you enclose me in your arms.
I love you ........ I weep at your words
you kiss my tears and fears away.
I love you ........ I weep at your words
I close my eyes as I allow myself to believe.
I love you ........ I listen to your words
and dare to dream of what it may mean.
I love you ........ I listen to your words
and echo your "I do" when its my turn.
