You are beautiful

You are beautiful whether you recognize it or not yours is a face that won’t soon be forgotten you don’t have to love me you don’t need to feel it  I can feel enough for two and there’s nothing left to do but say I love you, and you’re beautiful though some would say the words are overused and oft abused by those that do not understand but stop before you reprimand me I know what I say is true so far as truth is known despite my feeling blue and not knowing what to do I love you, and you’re beautiful there’s so many ways to say it I could like, or lust, or want, or need, or desire, or long for, or pine, I could say cute, or pretty, or gorgeous, or nice, or foxy, or sexy, or lovely, or exquisite, or charming and some or all of those could be true but all I’d like to say to you is I love you, and you’re beautiful it’s true Mark Burton Monday, November 28, 2005, 3:37 P.M.
