You Didn't Know

You Know...
I've always felt this way...
Didn't really have the words.
I'll always love you...
Though you haven't a face...
Exude pride and grace..
I've always felt this way.
I've forever needed you...
Just didn't know how to ask...
Thought it was such a task...
But now it's so easy.
With stomachs so queasy
I've always felt this way...
Just didn't know...
You never showed
Till words spoke out above...
To emotions...not a shove...
But a knock to the heart
A spark in the dark...
I've always felt this way.
You just didn't know that I
Loved you so...
Till now and your face...
Meets each dream, each taste
For my soul has found yours
And the future is sure..
That to be one with two
Just me and just you
Knows...just knows.
That I've always felt...
This way.
