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.
