More poems about Abiding Love
NO WORDS
Sometimes love needs no word
Spoken, for each heart is heard
Beating as one, love unspoken,
Weaving a web not to be broken.
The touch of a hand, a look in an eye
Means nothing to one who passes by,
Yet to those in love, hearts did speak,
A blush quietly touches each cheek.
Wiping away a tear on the back of a hand,
With a look simply saying “I understand”.
The silence of love is indeed a beautiful thing,
Words known but not spoken joy can bring.
It does not mean “I love you” should not be said,
But sometimes the right words stay in your head,
But the look and touch and a deep loving sigh,
Can speak a volume, when words pass you by.
