She Knows

She knows, not just how much I love her-
How I’m always thinking of her.
I would die for just one kiss,
But she knows even more than this.

She knows she is my heart’s desire
And there will be no greater fire.
Sealed the day that we first met-
On her my sun will rise and set.

And though I have to set her free
She knows she is a part of me.
A secret no one else can tell,
She tolerates it very well.

She knows, she even understands-
My heart is in her precious hands.
And God has answered all my prayers
In just the special way she cares.

She knows, without my telling now-
She knows, it doesn’t matter how,
That I will love her ‘till my death
And until then with every breath.
