My heart beats, ”I love you” in morse code
And it skips a few when you

Graze your hand against my cheek
When your toes tickle my feet

You’ve got three freckles on you collar bone
That I never get tired of counting

You touch me like rain in sunny weather
You’re the grass I lay in to look at the sky

You’re the summit I reached to breach cloud nine
You’re the sun rise of my life

I never thought I’d be one to write love songs
But it’s all I do when I stroll on my own

July 8th became, and will forever and ever
be my favorite date

We kissed before we ever spoke
the words “hello”, “how are you?”

“Do you like music?”; “Do you like to travel?”
“What’s your favorite color?”; “What’s your favorite weather”

We were unconventional right from the start
and I heart our unconventional love

Butterflies still flutter out of my mouth
they flooded my stomach when I first cast my eyes

On you, it was just from behind
then we locked our eyes and love suddenly bloomed

Dear, every thought of you is music
and I love to blink
So I can glimpse at the mural of you
I’ve painted inside

*My heart beats, ”I love you” in morse code
And I know I hear yours beating it too
