The Inadequacy of Words

I Love You
I am at a loss for more words
What other ways I can say how much You mean

I've filled pages of my book with these thoughts
And I'm coming up with a shortage of expression

You reminded me tonight
It's been just over a year
Since I fell for You, since I came to You

And now the fear has mostly melted away
The insecurity and hesitation I once had
Is mostly a faint memory

There are still those nights
When the tears sneak in
That echo of the old fear returns
I doubt You and it comes in waves

But these are fewer
My heart aches more for wanting You
Than from any rejection I anticipate
Sometimes You even tease me about it
And things settle down for a while
At least until it shifts again.
