I can't seem to write
perfect words
or make them flow as
they should.They don't sound
particularly profound.I can't paint you
pretty pictures
or blend colors like
other artists do.My watercolors don't
bleed beautifully.But I can say I love you
in as many languages
as you need me to.I can be fluent in
loving you.LR
