I’ll probably love you too much
And not show it enough
I won’t say it out loud
But listen carefully
When I hum the tune of
Your favorite song
To complement the quiet
As we drive toward the beach
In the middle of the night
Listen when my breath
Slows down as it finds
A home on your chest
Syncing to the rhythm of yours
While I drift into dreams
Listen when I say your name
In a voice as soft as rose petals
Just because I like the sound
Of it rolling off my lips
I’ll probably love you too much
And not show it enough
I won’t say it out loud
So listen carefully
