As I looked into his eyes
And found his longing stare
I stopped myself from saying words
That would show how much I care
I put my hand up to his face
To hold my feelings in
I wouldn't say the words again
To show my love for him
The last time I had told him
How much he meant to me
He put my hands away from his
And said to leave him be
I never spoke the words again
For fear of his deep fright
I thought it was the last time
Until that blissful night
His fingers traced around my face
Pushing hair away
And I was quite unprepared
For what he was to say
My heart beat quickly, my head raced on
I thought that I might cry
He looked as if he might faint-
Imagine this strong guy
But never would I be more impressed
With anything he'd do
Than when he took that heartful leap
And told me, "I love you."
