A Thousand Words Are Not Enough (How Do I Say I Love You) Poem by Lance Mead

A Thousand Words Are Not Enough (How Do I Say I Love You)



There are not enough words to describe
how I feel at this moment in time
I said something the other day
and it hurt you soo much,
even though you tried to hide it
I said something and Jokingly
you said it must be love
And I said no your alright thanks
and for the first time ever
Your face looked like I had just
kicked you in the jaw with an iron boot,
You looked almost ready to cry
I knew then the grave error I had made
But how would I tell you I was sorry
how could I undo what I had just done........

How do I say something
How do I say anything without scaring you off
How do I say I want to be the one you turn to whenever your scared
How do I say your the most beautiful girl I've ever known,
even when your standing in the pouring rain
with makeup running down your face,
no one else even comes close to you
How do I tell you I want to be the one to treat you right
How do I say I won't ever let anyone ever hurt you,
and that I would die to keep you safe
When do I tell you I love the way
your nose crinkles every time you smile,
the way your eyes widen so brightly when your cheeks flush,
and then when you giggle my whole body goes warm and tingly

how do I tell you I never want you to leave
and hope you would never want to either...
How do I say that I even love you when your angry
and i just want you to let all of your frustrations
out on me so your not angry anymore...
How do I say that no one else even comes close to you,
and that's why I don't even bother looking,
How do I say I want to be the one
that cares for you every time your sick
How do I tell you that I want to be the one
holding your hand whenever your sad
through all of life's problems
just so you know it will all be ok again
And I want to be the one that makes you
the happiest girl alive,
every single day of your life
I want to be the one that makes your life better
I want to be the one who never lets you down
How do I say I think of you every minute I'm awake
How do I tell you your the most amazing person I've ever met
How do I say that just being around you makes my whole day better
How do I say it doesn't matter what I have as long as I have you
How do I say I want to be the man who grows old with you
How do I say that I want children, but only if your playing mum

When do I stop all this an just kiss you so
softly and passionately you melt into
my arms and never want to go anywhere
but just stay in that moment forever

How do I say three little words
How do I say I love you

How do I know you won't turn and run.......

How do I know you'll say it back to me

I can't promise every day will be like a fairytale happy ending but I will try with all of my heart to make it happen.....

And I've had to write all of this down because I'm so scared you will break my heart I can't bear thinking about it
