Ruben Lamonte Davis Poem by KayLuh LaMonte Davis

Have I Ever Told You...
That If I Sit Really Still&Silent
Sometimes I Like To Think That
I Can Hear Your Heart Beating
In Time, With Mine?

Have I Ever Told You...
That When I Watch You Speak To Me
Between Lines&Bytes
I Imagine Your Gentle Voice
Whispering Into My Ear?

Have I Ever Told You..
That I Wait Out Each Night
In Anticipation, Waiting
Only An Hour or Two
Just A Second In Space&Time
To Feel Close To You?

Have I Ever Told You...
That Sometimes I Will Reach Out
And Touch Your Name
On This Cold Screen In Front Of Me
Wishing I Could Pull You To Me?

Have I Ever Told You...
There Has Been Times That
I Ached For You
Ached For You Badly
That The Emotions Overwhelmed Me
And So I Sat and Cried For Hours?

Have I Ever Told You...
That The First Time I Heard The Sound Of Your Voice
Thousands of Miles Away
I Sat Up All NIght, Thinking About That
Conversationg Over&Over Again
Like Some New Discovery I Made?

Have I Ever Told You...
That I Would Give Everything Up
Just For One Night
To Be Able To Lay Next To You
To Feel Your Chest Rise&Fall
With Each Breath You Take
Just TO Know That You Are Real?

Have I Ever Told You...
I Dream Of You Often
I Dream Of You Reaching Out To Me
And Touch My Hand Simply To Let Me Know
That Everything Is Okay?

Now All I Have To Tell You Now
Is That I Love You With All My Heart.
