When all of the words I can possibly write

Rival the stars on

A dark summer's night

How could I know

Which one would mean more

When each one contained

Feelings galore

I could just stay awake

And pull an all-nighter

As I read and I write

And I try to decipher

But I would soon realize

That it does not matter

For the words that mean most

Are not found in chatter

They are found in the actions

That I make every day

From the way that I kiss you

To your name that I say

From the looks that I steal

When you are not looking

To the tastes that I sneak

When you're happily cooking

For you see, as a poet,

I can only express

My feelings for you

When they burst from my chest

And yes there and days

When I can't say those words

But they are still there

Like an escaping bird

Who has run from its cage

But is trapped in a house

It may have fled once

But it will never get out

And I'm sorry for making you

Wait 18 of your years

I know that you've suffered

I know of your tears

But I am here now

And I don't plan on leaving

You are the love of my life

And that, I will keep believing
