Undeclared Love

A collaboration from MsJewel and Trace (me)

Undeclared Love 

He loved her for her satin; he loved her for her lace

He loved placing gentle kisses upon her tender face

He loved her sweet poetic words sung in melodic rhyme

 And in his heart he knew he would love her for all time

 

He loved her for her laughter; he loved her for her grin

He loved the little dimple on her ivory chin

He loved the way her tears welled up with sensitivity

And it was at this moment he knew this love was meant to be

 

He loved her when she was naughty; he loved her when she was sweet

He loved the way she felt pressed against his warm cheek

He loved how she fit so well in the curve of his arm

And he knew that her gentle heart he could never harm

 

He loved her for her courage; he loved her for her might 

He loved the way she stood for what she knew was right  

He loved the independence that kept her going through each day

And yet he never told her as she turned and walked away

 

He loved her for her magic; he loved her for her mystery 

He loved the little girly girl, in this lovely lady,

He loved it when his name she whispered, as she slept at night,

And when he took her in his embrace, she held him oh so tight,

 

He loved her for her wisdom, he loved her for being kind

He loved the way she giggles as he sneaks up from behind,

He loved everything about this woman, yet he never let her know,

And then one day, it happened, He finally let it show.
