Should you ask me at anytime what your love means to me -
- I could only answer truthfully saying; your love means everything, my every feeling
How could I give you a rehearsed answer? Orchid Lady, you are my all
Even your nightly breathing calls out to me and I eagerly pull your breath into my body.
Loving you brings me such happiness albeit combined with moments of sadness -
- happiness that lies snugly in my heart and occupies my daily desire to be with you -
- sadness for the times you are not here, leaving my heart feeling empty like an unfilled urn
Orchid Lady each lump or scar you bear belongs to me and the woman who fills my dreams.
There is no one simple way of telling you, "I love you," as there are so many reasons why
Your smile enters my eyes as though we were newly weds with all our excited expectations
Sweetheart, your voice haunts me like the strains of music reaching me from a Gypsy's violin
The softness of your body excites me more than words could ever reach your ears from my heart.
During times of illness I share this illness with you and ask, "Why are you suffering this way?"
Without a second thought I would give up the preciousness of my own life to ensure you lived
Orchid Lady without you by my side I would never wish to awake and witness another dawn -
- my foundations would crumble like the ruins of an ancient pyramid; my life would be empty.
You see my love, trying to explain my love for you would take forever to whisper in your ears
Angel, I am just me; unable to possess the secret of making the impossible become possible
I am just a man who loves you free from conditions; besides, only vanity demands perfection
If we were all perfect there would be no love in this world, only a world filled with impostors.
Perfection cannot demand more of a person, perfection cannot seek improved perfection
Yet here I must tell you in truth Orchid Lady you are my own private perfection -
- you are my every dream, my want, desire and my enthusiasm for a life partner
So my love, my simple answer to your question; I love you because you are - YOU.
