The hours pass seemlessly by
The conversation flows effortlessly
The company completely enrapturing
Time is not longer relevant
The words so soft and gentle....



Thoughts of you bring such peace to my soul
Your voice brings life to my essence
Your presence inspires my creativeness
Your friendship feeds my survival
The words so soft and gentle....



In each of us, the potential for significance
Deep within, the ability to subsist, to attain
You bring the finest in me to the surface
You unbolt doors that retain much sentiment
The words so soft and gentle....



We talk of everything, and yet nothing
The less we say, the more we understand
The inability to touch remains sublimely sensual
The inability to see invokes inner vision
The words so soft and gentle....



Those words, so soft and gentle
Yet if blind I would see them
Yet if deaf, I would hear them
May they forever melt my heart
May they forever mend my soul
The words so softly spoken
The words so soft and gentle....
