Have I Ever Told You

Have I ever told you...
    that you laugh with your eyes full of stars 
      shining brighter than the afternoon sun?
                  Darling, you ought to know
                   if you don't already know!

                    I wonder if you know... 
         that there's heaven in your every kiss.
         Every time your soft lips cling to mine,
       you breathe life into my lungs and ignite
            a powder keg of passion within me!

                  Have I ever reminded you... 
           that I could sleep forever and a day
       in your embrace? It feels just like home; 
                celestial bliss each time I rest 
                     my head on your bosom.

           Your divine secrets are far too many,
    but it's no secret that you're my raison d'etre.  
              Have I ever told you how much... 
       I love you? I do, my sweet, more than ever.
             Though I know you already know it!
