LOVE IS BUT A PRESSURE
Love is but a pressure, not kind but noble and true.....
Although it causes wanting, it shows that I need you.....
An ache thats never ending, a craving oh so deep....
A Yearning to be with you, at times I cannot sleep....
Words will not describe it, phrases cannot tell ....
Oceans never quench it, deeper than a well....
Causing tender feelings, to surface from within....
Savoring every moment, in the presence of your grin.....
Your needs become important, I put them before mine...
Your lips become my pleasure, like intoxicating wine....
No sacrifice denied you, by my ever caring heart...
I miss you when you're with me, and more when we're apart....
Its forgiveness for each failure, and each mistake I make.....
Knowing that you'll always be there, with every breath I take......
When times get tough and things go wrong, I'll be there by your side.....
When no one else extends their hand, when they all run and hide......
Its a two way street of kindness, where mercy and trust abound.....
Its knowing that you understand, and lift me when I'm down......
The thrill of walking separately, waiting for the night.....
When once again we join ourselves, and let our hearts take flight.....
A song with words only we can sing, for only we can know......
The lyrics and the melody, as we sing them soft and low......
When no one else can touch me, or make me feel this way....
With you alone, I want to walk, with you I want to play......
