silver white stars

I love you more with each passing hour
I love you more than I can say
I love your beauty and your power
from the night unto the day
if only you would understand
the need to bring my love to light
and hurl misfortune out of sight
to hold your hand tonight
under a blanket of silver white stars
that I might caress your cheek
and tell you all the feelings
inspired when you speak
it doesn’t matter what we say
but how it’s really said
even sadness is okay
if love is meant.
