Frank Witte - Simplicity

Sometimes it needs simply saying
what in the heart wants to be said;
like a true and honest prayer
in which most words are shed.

I can live of a look in your eye,
I can breathe from the air you exhale,
I can walk any road at your side,
I can hold you where you're frail
I can give you passion when you're cold,
I can give you my hands to hold.

Sometimes it needs simple prayer
for the heart's love to be fed;
Truly and honestly saying,
with all but just three words shed:

'Thee I love'
is really enough.

Frank Witte
