It Isn't Poem by Danny Speicher

It isn't in the way you say my name
Though it's sweetest sound I've ever heard
Nor is it in the way you stake your claim
Though proud, I am, to be yours, rest assured

It's not the way your lips smile at me
Nor their soft caress that makes me love you
It's nothing that you can taste or can see
It's not anything you say or you do

If I had ten thousand songs to sing
And if I had a million pages to write
Oh, even then, I couldn't truly bring
The words or a tune to express it right

So, look in my eyes, dear; see how I feel
There's no other way to show you what's real
