More Than Words Poem by Linda Patino

You say I’m like a rare and unique diamond that sparkles even in the dark
.
You say my heart is one of a kind filled with sunshine even through the rain.

You say my smile intertwines into your dreams till the morning light.

You say my eyes speak words of love without a spoken word.

You say my soul over flows with faith even when I fall.

You say I share my heart and soul openly with hopes and dreams.

You say I’m beautiful even when my anger is stirred.

You say I’m special and you will never let me go.

You say you will love me unconditionally forever and a day.

I’ve been down this road before I’ve loved with my heart open wide only to be hurt.

It’s going to take more than words you say, to persuade my heart your love is true.
