You Showed Me Love Is Fun Poem by Ray Hansell

You tell me that you're amazed
With the words I write
You say you think of them
As you lay in bed at night

Sometimes you say it seems
Like I'm inside your head
Or know just what you're thinking
No, I just listen to what is said

I hear every word you speak
I wait to see just what you'll say
I remember everything
From each and every day

I remember everything about you
I watch your every move
I memorize your smiling face
Your cheeks so soft and smooth

The relaxing way in which you dress
How your clothes fit so right
When I sit and remember you
The picture is such a beautiful sight

I think that both you and I
Want the same things from life
We think so much alike
I think that's very nice

Two people who were in need
Of finding someone new
We're finally taking care of the person
You have me and I now have you

What we found is nothing new
Its been around for years
I never been in love like this before
It almost moves me to tears

They would be tears of happiness
For you give me no reason to be sad
You in fact only give me reason
To be so very glad

So don't be surprised
By the words I write
You give me every reason
To make them sound all right

Love brought us together
In love one day we may part
Please remember darling
You'll live forever in my heart

I never felt this way before
Not about anyone
But I'm glad that it was you
Who showed me that love is fun
