A pictures
Worth a thousand words
But what if those words could mean more
What if every item had a secret meaning
And what if you could only discover those meanings
Over a long period of time?
At first glance
I see a lot of things
Your beautiful eyes
That sparkle in the flash
A smile that speaks
Of happiness inside
A peace that surrounds you
Though all around is chaos
But now that picture means even more
Something worth 1000 words is now worth 2000
For after a month of being in your arms
I have learned that each particle has a meaning
Every inch of mass matters in a way I never knew
Now I see you
Eyes that twinkle in the sudden flash
Like you are unconsciously winking at me
A perfect smile that sometimes causes you pain
Happiness that often hides behind a wall
Even though your laugh is contagious like a wildfire
I understand that nudge across my skin
Means that you want a kiss
That you want me to look into your eyes
That with those eyes you hold the power
To say, I love you
Silently you can beg
For things such as a back massage
Fingers across your skin
What once said so much
Now speaks in ways I never knew
Like a wonderful line spoken in a soft voice
It now resounds across the widest of space
Echoing back at me a hundred times
The sweetest thing I ever heard.
