..............Every Second Beat..........

If I had a thousand pages,


I could never name them all,


The reasons that I love you,


For the list would be too tall.

I love you for the melody,


I hear within your voice.


The way your blue eyes hold me,


A captive, but by choice.


I love you for your gentle hands,


That melt away my pain.


I love you for your loving heart,

That made mine beat again.


I love you for your loving smile,


With which my old heart soars.


These are some of the reasons,


Every second beat is yours.
