Poem: My love is in knowing

I can read those thoughts

That cruise through your mind

I can see the hurt

That I have left behind

*

I know the way your eyes

Fill up when I am mean

You always hurt in silence

You never make a scene

*

I can sense your heart

And its dreams and pride

I knew who you are

As I came along for the ride

*

I'm not always perfect

I end up hurting you

I sometimes leave your pride

Bruised black and blue

*

But remember my love

Even when you dont show

I'll heal all those wounds

For I'll always know

*

My love is caring, sharing

My love is being, showing

But most of all my darling

My love is in knowing.
