i know what love is
i can see it in your eyes
as you tilt your head
and whisper solemn goodbyes
i know what love is
i can see it on your face
we take the world by storm
but never leave a single trace
"love is patient
love is kind...
it always protects
always trusts
always hopes
always perseveres"
the stillness swallows us
and the quiet speaks our names
love is on our tongues,
falling out of our mouths
into silent soliloquies.
love is around the corner
we run to catch it but
remember it was here
all along
inside our pockets
or in our clenched fists.
i know very little in this grand old place
but i know what i see when i see your face
