'I Have Fallen in Love'

Amanda K. Hoover

-- to Jared R. Long

. . . is too freely spoken between a man and a woman who only have selfish motives. So I want to say how much I love you without any of those words. This may be a little scattered, but just look at the whole picture.

Most of all, I am drawn to your eyes. They say much more than you realize. They tell me what you see in me even though I don't always agree. They are warm and soothing. Always complementing the things you say. I also see something in your eyes I can't explain, but I will try. It is like looking into the sky and seeing all the beauty and awe. It's never ending, and I always wonder what it holds of you so deep.

When you smile it is more than a smile -- it lights up the world around me. It opens many passages to my heart and the things you say are deeply felt in an exciting way. It is like beautiful music to my soul. And just like music to the soul, it is healing.

Of course I also think you are very sexy and because of that I am very content just observing you. That may sound strange, but it is true. Every move you make is a flutter in my stomach and an extra beat of my heart.
