I would paint your portrait a thousand times, <br />Yet never capturing your true beauty <br />But never giving up <br /> <br />If I were a musician <br />I would write you song after song <br />Yet never being able to express in words <br />How you lift up my heart <br /> <br />If I were a poet <br />I would write a thousand lines <br />Only falling short of explaining how <br />I truly feel inside <br /> <br />I am a simple man with simple thoughts <br />Yet with such complex feelings for you <br />I am unable to express them to you <br />In oils, music or words <br /> <br />All I have is indeed true love and friendship <br />For you my closest friend <br />Feelings I know you share <br />You have found the key that unlocks me <br /> <br />My heart is joyful and free <br />Of any ill feeling I might have once had <br />You have released the chains of doubt <br />And I know now what true love is <br /> <br />Thank you for being my rock <br />Thank you for being my shoulder <br />I will always cherish that what you have given me <br />My heart is yours forever <br /> <br />I commit to you this day <br />That you will always be in my heart <br />You have given me the chance I needed <br />For a fresh new start <br /> <br />I accept you for who you are <br />I trust you have done the same <br />I care not what others might say <br />I will always be there for you the same <br /> <br />Tim Romines <br />5/30/20008<br /><br />Tim Romines<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-was-a-painter/
